I’m glad the yellow fog tint looks as good as I imagined it did when I impulse bought the sheets from Lamin-X at 1 in the morning a week or so ago.

There’s a clear rear bumper guard I installed too which turned out much better than anticipated and you can’t even see it unless you’re right up on the bumper.

Now what to play with and modify next... probably lose the plastic OEM shifter cable bracket and get a metal APR one which should help with slop.

These are still one of my favorite OEM wheel designs. Fogs look good too. I’m thinking about going clear or slight tint lamin-x the next time I de-haze my headlights.

Those fog lights are teeeeeny tiny

Am I the only one that’s annoyed by the fogs on the Mk6/7? I feel like they should be at the corners of the middle lower grille.

I absolutely adore the wheels, they were partially why I bought the car honestly. I’m thinking about some clear covers for my headlights to stop them from hazing since I park outside.

Well they double as cornering lights if you have automatic headlights so I kinda understand their positioning. I feel like they’d be too close together in the lower grille honestly.

They are tiny being 2.75", but being led pack a punch.

Same. Mine only last about 6 months before they need it again.

I’ve never been a huge fan of those wheels (Huffs?) since they debuted on the Mk V and were on every single GTI everywhere for a couple years. I like them more now that they’re a little more rare, though.

Fogs look great! That tint always reminds me of shooting glasses.

My brother just picked up a MkVII in the same color and loves it...no mods, though. He spends all his cash on the car payment, lol.

I feel like I read Detroit is the name of the alloys, I’m not sure.

All my money goes towards my payment too (okay not really but I’m not exactly brimming with extra cash), I just had an extra $20 for once!

No.

I just googled...turns out the names are interchangeable! Looks like they changed it to Detroit in later years maybe. But either way, it’s the longest running stock wheel I can think of.

Save those pennies for a chip, you won’t regret it. I’m partial to APR, but partly because I went to college with the founders...

I’m definitely gonna get a tuner for it and im leaning toward APR. Gonna let my warranty run its course first probably.

That was one of the first things I did to my Jetta. Really made it look sportier and the light output is technically better. Only issue is that it made Honda ricer drivers drive aggressively around me.

Huff’s have black painted holes and Detroit’s have Grey painted holes. Easiest way to differentiate.
