I thought about putting my dog bone insert in, but I didn't feel like rolling around on the cold concrete so tomorrow afternoon it is. I am pretty excited to get this thing in though.

Got a new front lip made up for the mk7.5 by a newish company starting up. Also got a new diffuser made that has 4 different style fins I can switch to at anytime. Heres a pic of the diffuser for a reference. I forgot to take a pic of it on my car today.

How do you switch the fins out?

Just undo 1 bolt and pull them off and put the new ones on. You dont need to remove the diffuser to swap out the fins either. 1 set of fins just snap on though to with no bolt

I'll be replacing the lower puck with a powerflex one tomorrow. :)
What do you have currently? I am wondering easy it is to get the BFI one out (if I ever have a reason aside from going to stage 2 material) as it is a pretty flexible material.

How about what we did to other people's GTI's today?

Helped mount an OEM Oettinger twin bridge spoiler on @Fliptrocity's car, and letting the adhesive cure in my garage overnight.

Dope! Very nice of u too. Did u guys also paint it? Any more pics?

He's been one of my best friends for over 15 years, and actually the reason I even own a GTI, so don't mind helping out. He ordered on sale from a dealer for something like $340, where places like ECS have it listed for $500+. We didn't paint it, he had it painted somewhere. Will probably have some more pics tomorrow, right now it's still covered with a microfiber cloth with some weights on it to apply pressure while the adhesive cures overnight.
