Welcome
Welcome to the THREE.8.WERKS Forum. Login to access the message boards.

The 6th Annual eurothon is behind us. This event is all about a good time, seeing friends that you haven't seen since last season and catching up. There were the usual People's Choice Awards and the Dr. Ferdinand Porsche PROPER Award going to "Cosmic Bunny" Ivan.
Empire City Raceway and Casino played host to some of the sickest euros from the area and beyond. We're already lined up for 2010. Hope to see you there!

Everything sounds great Bruno. Here' my suggestions :D

Chapter 1: The Stance

Work VS-XX 17x8, 17x9.5 on wobble bolts (Tania-redrilled with REAL bolts)
Falken ZE-912 205/45 & 215/45
K-sport Kontrol Pro Coils

Chapter 2: The Bread

FK Badgeless
Semi-shaved Front bumper (Tania- plate holes shaved only)
Color Matched Lip and rear valance
OEM 08+ Smoked Tails (Tania-R32 tails)
Joey Modded Fronts (maybe joey modded rears too) (Tania- buy OEM smoked headlights cheap ass ;) )
Smoked Mirror Turn signals

Chapter 3: The Butter

OEM Navi or Panisonic (Tania- OEM)
GTI Aluminum Pedels (Tania-PedAls) lol..
GTI Plaid Seats
GTI Steering Wheel
OEM Golf Ball knob

Chapter 4: The Fun

Air Ride (Maybe) (Tania-suck it up!)
Some retarded sized Steelies: 16x8.5+ front 16x10+ rear (Tania-never over the Work wheels!)
Go nuts (Tania-That's why you're my brother :D)

And you know I'm teasing, I'll help with whatever I can.

---
And you didn't mention that you already have an appointment with Driversport on Thursday to install the coils, and we're taking a little trip to Perfect Metal in jerz to figure out the wheels. My brother isn't here for a week and he's making quicker moves than me!!! ai ai ai. haha

Wheel Update: i had the wheels mounted and balanced today and they clear everything. the rear mounted up with lil trouble but i had a hard time lining up the front, i think i just need some real tools :/

...but for now the Works go back to hibernation. im heading back to VA in a few days i think its better i stay on the stock wheels.

so i hope to see you guys at Eurothon and Waterfest! gud luk n gud dubbin

oh and i think i've decided on the wheel colors.
Original Silver or polished face, Black Bolts and Polished Lip.

As much as i like the black centers, i think silver looks more mature... or should i say "proper"
