who mentioned OSIR, was that in here?

anyone buying these, I've got a carbon fiber bridge to sell you that would go great with them

aesthetically, they're like if a honda fit were an insulting parody of itself

they make a set of carbon fiber mk7 r lower bumper trim strips for like $500 that are right around the same price as the stainless ones from vw

On the one hand I cry because I really like how it sits currently, on the other hand I could get some money back if I sell the springs.

Edit: no money back if I have to buy stock springs too

because nobody here has stock springs you'd get for free or damn close to it

that's insane, like I love carbon fiber look as much as the next guy (unless the next guy is jay lol) but that's really an 'I ran out of other things to spend money on' thing IMO
