Default Washed the car. A few pics... I'm lovin' the TT now that it's warmer... :o)

This picture shows one of the unique things I like about my car. The nice palette the white, black, silver and red make together. I love it! Just thought I'd share that. )

This shows how much my driver side rear spring is sinking. It seems like it's getting worse. Here's the driver side:

And this is the passenger side: Nice contrast, eh? ;oP

Here's a shot w/ my new OEM six spokes. I think white TTs look better with more spokes.

Here's a comparison pic w/ my old fat fives:

And... Now to reveal my plans for what I'm going to do to my TT next! I'm really excited about this! I'm going to install my clear corners, my HN angel eyes, and I'm going to paint my housings bright silver! Thanks to a fellow forum member for making me think about this. I would have never thought it would look this good, had he not got me to thinking about it. Here's a photoshop for reference. Now if I can just find a bright enough silver to make it look like this:

Okay, that's all I got today. Thanks for reading all this! )

Default That's a no go. I don't like the two-tone housings at all. I love the way the silver lightens up

the front of the car, though. My only fear is that I won't be able to find the right silver. There are literally hundreds of silvers out there...
