KESSY retrofit incoming, with illuminated door handles. They'll go to paint shop next week.
And harnesses for area view retrofit. @xabhax My harnesses came with door connector pins as well, as expected I suppose. FedEx has not yet admitted to losing my areaview module but it no longer has a delivery date

.Not sure I’ll sell it but if I do you will be first in line.
Scored some very lightly used Macan calipers, lines, and RPVs for $500, courtesy of @uranorab8. Just showed up today, using his picture cause it's easier than unboxing all of it. So now I'm in about $600, just need to buy pads and brake fluid. And maybe some caliper paint, haven't decided yet.
Picked up another rack for wheels/tires off Amazon. These things work great and have a 300lb weight limit. Inexpensive as well.
I’ve had the one with the stock wheels on for about 2 years now.

I have 3 of those in my garage.
None of which actually have wheels/tires on them at this point

I'm from the future, spooooooky 
used Baun 3" downpipe is due to arrive tonight. @GTI Jake built me a custom resonator section to fit my CTS catback, and that's shipped out as well. Ordered the EQT Stage 2 93 tune, that should be coming shortly as well. I'm so amped, I could power the whole country for a couple days.

Bunch of new goodies came in for the MK7 today. VW valve cover gasket kit, Serpentine belt kit, VW timing chain kit, Oil change kit, NGK spark plugs, BFI stage 1 engine/trans mount, fresh endlinks & tie rods for the front. Felt like a kid on christmas going through everything.

Also got my new goodies from @GTI Jake , the downpipe is used hence why it doesn't quite have the sheen but the resonator section in the back is brand spankin' new. In testing fitment was great, I'll be installing once I get some copper anti-seize for the o2 sensor (story I won't repeat here again)
also I don't really get on social media BUT I checked in to see some build pictures from the Baun facebook page, and cue massive anxiety when I see photos of the less-aggressive CBE (which I knew was in development alongside the resonator section for my CTS catback) and mistake it for a revised CTS exhaust and start to panic, thinking that I'm gonna need to do some hacky shit to make the resonator work. Reality is, it was the Less-Aggressive CBE, and I'm a moron. Anybody on the fence, have faith -- Jake knows what he's doing (the other one, not me). He's been fantastic to work with and gave a ton of helpful info when emailed.
