Some of you may know I sold my Si and bought a MK4 VR6 Jetta.. I absolutely hated the dub scene so I ended up selling the car to my little sister cheap, and picked up this EG from my buddy pretty cheap with the plan of making it a show car with west coast style :thumbup:

Here it is the day I got it. August 12, 2009..
I should probably include that I leave for college on Saturday August 15 :shock:
So this thread is going to be updated weekly until the car is painted, and I'll be driving it until winter.. once it gets cold out the bay will be done.

This is going to be a semi-baller build since I don't make baller money, but I have some saved from selling my EM1. The build includes a full color change (again), ls/vtec, full bay tuck and shave. Updates will be slower on here than NWP4life.. but I'm not starting a thread on there until I replace the quarter panels next weekend when I come home from school :thumbup:



















Traded the shaved hatch for a stock one right after I got it.



Reppin my homies sisco & chippy



Junk after the first couple hours :lol:

Well.. that's it for tonight, hopefully this thread will keep moving :thumbup:

Nice progress, hood is a little tilted up though. I would fix that ASAP.

Thanks, I need to adjust the hood latch down a bit farther before paint in a couple weeks..
BTW, do you still have your hatch?

Oh I was being sarcastic, I thought your raised the hood on purpose but it kinda backfired. Yes, I do still have it.

Yeah it's been collecting dust this year but I'm sure I'll have some updates later this month. What color are you going with

I'm glad that there are still guys in here who show their love for an EG. I thought everyone here were all going for EKs, EJs, and EMs. Goodluck with the build!
