Excellent photos! Can I use it as an example of a shark blue? They really highlight the car. I can see the flaps on the side skirts for the jack stands.
He looks great Sportsrider! Its almost better you had to wait until Wedenesday, because there was rain on Tuesday. Your pictures would not have looked as good. Nice shots on Alki! I really like the body kit, and the spoiler! Now we have to get your Shark, Peral and Vin together for a Seattle family photo. Other than mine, I have not seen any other Golf Mk6 TDIs driving on the road yet, only on a dealership lot.
Yes, we should all (Vin, Pearl and Casper) all get together for a group photo shoot. I did indeed luck out with the weather on delivery day. Do you get down south often?
I've seen on united gray 2dr here in West Seattle and a GTI also here.
yes mine was handled thru the dealer and it's the Washington state legal 35%. I've had 20% on other cars and it's just a little to dark for me. 35% is very nice.
I am taking delivery of a white 2010 Golf TDI next Tues. Interested in the body kit, poss rear spoiler first then add parts. Where can the parts be ordered? Thanks
Though I think "Bling" is subjective I would never consider anything subtle and OEM as Bling. I have seen chrome door handles available by a 3rd party manufacture for the Golf and those I would call Bling.
This grille is both Subtle and OEM so it simply becomes a matter of taste.
sweet looking ride! I've been anxiously awaiting my Candy White 4 Dr with the Sport Styling Kit... I'm looking to do the clear bra due to my commute conditions, and am wondering where you ordered it and if it fits the front lip spoiler
My Clearbra was installed by Accutint in Seattle. They use 3M products and there is a template for the Votex front lip spoiler --- therefore everything looks OEM with no freehand cutting. It fits great despite there is a small seam in the very middle, way down low on the inside of the center cut-out.
Did you have top buy an entire new grille (with chrome) and lower section? Or can you just order the chrome inserts from the dealer and install them? I was thinking of doing this as well because a lot of early 2010's left the factory with the chrome sets.
I did buy a complete upper and lower grille. They are completely different grilles so one can not just add the chrome to the all black ones. I went thru Bud Klemp at Checkered Flag VW in Virginia...he has some great discounts to pass along.
Nice wheels Dan. Do you notice a difference in the ride with 18s vs. 17s? Your grill upgrade looks great too!....Glad we are finally having some good weather..Dan (Deej)
ya know, it may sound a bit strange, but I honestly believe it has a smoother ride with my new 18's over the stock 17's. These are a lower profile tire, 40 series, but they were specifically selected to go on a Passat...which is more of a cush riding VW than our Golfs. I was really expecting the ride quality to go in the other direction, but I am pleasantly surprised with smiles and giggles!
