Nah. The TypeS wheels.

I never said you vdubbers didn't have taste. Who do you think helped me decide on the RPM2's. A VW owner.

i had a blast in the philippines and cant wait to go back and hopefully longer... lots of fd's out there.

i like my mdx shrouds... tho i feel like my shroud color match my car more and are a flat/matt silver and other mdx shrouds i see around are a bit more reflective than mine for example: (top picture is mine, bottom is dawns mdx shrouds)





if you end up selling the s2ks lmk... at first i thought they were too thin but on the more recent sets of retros they have been growing on me. but i change my mind a lot you can ask ryryninja since i usually bounce ideas off him left and right. but you really cant go worng with either shroud.

true.. I actually like the mdx shrouds originally and was gonna do tsx/mdx and had all the parts, but then pete parted out his car and so I got his retrofit. I didn't like the s2k at first but it's growing on me everyday I see it, so I dunno, we'll see.. If i ended up selling my s2k they're yours.

btw, did you see the new 6000k bulbs from bjorn? I think they look nice and he said the light output should be the same than the 4300k.. and he can also put the cms2 for us..
