Man I know you hear this over in over again but that car is beautiful!! I was wondering if you drive it everyday and if you rub at all with people in the car? I am planning on buying a jetta within two weeks and I want to get 19" rims. thanks for the inspiration!!!

Thanks man! Yes, It's a daily driver. Driven everyday both in Calgary and Los Angeles. No problems rubbing, but when the car is fully loaded with peeps it feels a little rough. If you regularly drive with 3 or more people in your car, I think 18's might be a better choice? But so far, I really like the 19's and haven't had any problems with them

Bringing this baby back, I wanted to share a pic of your car with the Volvo crowd (to show how good a rear window spoiler and a trunk lip can look together) and all your pics are gone!!

Can I please have one? maybe a couple? (if it's ok that I share it on another forum)

Re: 2002 Jetta 1.8T

LOL, that's so wierd. Blair just sent some Eurodriver stickers so I was literally thinking last night that I should go out this weekend and take some updated pics for this thread. I'll fix the broken pic links and post some updated shots this weekend. Feel free to whore them all you like

Edit: Links fixed. But I don't seem to have a direct rear-view shot of the spoilers. I'll have to take better shots weekend

To be honest, I'm pretty sure it isn't allowed lol. But i've been far too lazy to get it changed and my Cali insurance and the Alberta registry don't have a problem with it, so....

Edit: It's amazing how many Canadians approach me because of the plates here. It's like my little conversation starter lol

Thanks guys I haven't washed the car in about 2.5 weeks, so I'm surprised it looks that good lol.

Mike - I used a Sigma 10-20mm wide angle and a Sigma 24-70 f2.8 on my spiffy new 30D

Re: 2002 Jetta 1.8T

Those shots are incredible, looks like its time to update my desktop pics
Wow my black truck could hardly make it through a day looking that clean so I guess the trick to having a black vehicle is moving to cali. Your car looks flawless Im impressed!
