Do show us pleaseCurrently at 165k, just got A LOT of maintenance done to fix pretty much every small mechanical issue to keep it going. Got oil leaks fixed, new brakes/tires/heater core/water pump/carbon cleaning. Probably more I am forgetting. Had since new tuned stage 2 since about 25k miles. Had the front resprayed a couple years ago and replaced worn interior pieces so looks like it has half the miles than it actually does
Do show us please
Are those supernova or helix lights?View attachment 300990
One of my fav pics right after the respray and spending a long time detailing lol
Supernova that I took off recently due to them fading horribly, wish they hadn't because I love the look. Always had the amber side markers thoughAre those supernova or helix lights?
I wonder if you've grabbed black led sidemarkers since that pic.
Looks awesome though man!
What's fading on them? Is it repairable? I've loved the way that the supernovas looked but was never excited to take 6/7 hundred out of my pocket for them when the halogens look so great too.Supernova that I took off recently due to them fading horribly, wish they hadn't because I love the look.

Any chance you'd sell em?
I had done the tensioner but everyone said to get the chain replaced as well, 4-5 years later, I got the chains replaced along with the guides and rails, I did not replace the balance shafts.... which my Go-to VW/Audi specialized shop says it's not a problem.Yep still on the original chain.

Thank you, if I remember correctly after the Mk6 they stopped making the two doors for North America at least, or maybe it was in the middle of the Mk7 production years they stopped?what. a. BEAUTY.... 2 door is the way to go man.... rare to see 2 door GTI's.
that's the other side most don't understand, if one doesn't drive the car much, it can cause issues... at least drive it once every 7 days at the bare minimumK04 here with 158k
Timing was done at 115k
Don’t see any reason it wouldn’t make it 200k, other than lack of use working from home.
