MotivatedPY Thu, Aug-04-2011, 04:09:55 AM So iv been slacking on getting some pictures up even after being reminded a few times lol.. So here we go..
2004 Phoenix Yellow
Nappa black, 6 speed
when i bought the car 3 1/2 years ago it was bone stock with 36,000 miles.. I drove a few different Ms in different colors both smg and 6 speeds, when i finally stumbled on this one.. I loved the color in person, a color that i have come to find is more of a love it or hate it color.. It hadnt even been put on the lot yet and i was very persistent about it being mine that day! I couldnt believe a car that i had dreamt of for so long was finally mine.. Anyways couple years later here are the mods and the way it sits now..
bilstein pss9 coilovers
solid design exhaust
vorsteiner carbon v-csl trunk
ccw classics shotpeened center w/ polished lips
18x10 fr w/ 255/35/18
18x11.5 rr w/ 295/30/18 (sebringjetta's old ccws)

The grey centers of these wheels just hit it perfect w/ the py....the stance is also perfect...Possibly my favorite py so far to date...

Haha thanks man. I appreciate that! To be honest, after seeing your pics, I am wanting to go back to OEM side gills, grills, and corner lights. Sold mine off so I got to pick some up! I look forward to seeing where you take the car next.

I dont want to get to crazy with the outside, a lip and diffuser.. Im really leaning towards ICONZ race lip like you so youll have to keep us updated once you get it in.. i choose to keep the oem grills and gills because of the wheels and color of the car.. I am a fan of both but you just need to have the rest of the mods match.. One thing im torn on is the oem clear corners, keep or go depo? Sometimes i like them and sometimes i want the headlights to look more one piece.

The ICONZ lip should be here in a few weeks. I'll be sure to post my review in my journal once I get to spend some time with it.
I agree. I am considering going back to OEM gills/grills as well due to my wheels. it might give it a much cleaner and classier look. Just need to pick some up.
The smoked depos do look great, but after all the mods I've done, I find myself wanting to go back to the clean OEM look more and more. I would say give them a try and see if you like it. They are only 25 bucks from Khoalty. But keep your OEMS! Don't sell them like me because when you want to change up the look, you have to go buy more haha.

Toby22 Wed, Aug-10-2011, 12:57:08 AM damn! those wheels really make your car stand out, very aggressive without going over the top.
MotivatedPY Sun, Aug-14-2011, 10:38:38 PM thanks guys!
williemandowa Mon, Aug-15-2011, 01:46:46 AM Man your car looks perfect just the way it is Im not really feeling that icon lip I think your car the way it is looks very aggressive but classy
nbennettksu Fri, Apr-27-2012, 10:44:47 PM Hey man, you've got an inspiring PY :D what is the offset on those rims? And running any extra negative camber?
Toby22 Sat, Apr-28-2012, 12:50:43 AM this one is perfection
