They're $1300 from the VW dealership, I got em on eBay for $275+$99 shipping. Hard to find a set, I've never seen more than one set on eBay at once. Been watching for a while.

Oh you had an early. Mine's a late. Everyone loves the early, I'm one of the few people who enjoys the lates more. Earlies are nice too, though.

Gonna leave my patina though, and as you can see it'll tuck those 17s.

you have more trunk room up front! I just like the driving view of the early ones. Both pretty cool though. An ex girlfriend flipped it on me while borrowing it (I had to do the starter on her 16V Saab 900). Sad times

It'll be a little while. We have to get the brake rotors drilled to the bolt pattern, and we're probably gonna have to minitub it just a bit. I still have to buy tires too. That said, we're trying to have it built before Wolfsgart 2014, which is in late July.

That's all that matters.

I thought at first she sold it on you and I was just like holy crap.

haha nope.

Make sure you post pics with those mounted. They going to bolt right on or did you have to get a hub adapter? I forget the bolt patterns

These are 5X112, we bought undrilled brake rotors and are having them drilled to that pattern.
