    I had their stuff in my old A3, its quality for sure. My reverse lights are from them as well, crazy bright - 400 lumens or something. The trunk kit is custom, extends over and adds a second light on the right side of the hatch.



    It's a bit pricier, but worth it in the long run.

    Oh yeah, even while being busy adulting I did still pick up a few small things for the car.



    LED interior lights and a dual led trunk kit along with Porsche oil and coolant caps.

    And yeah, I hear you about focusing on the house. Very little has been done on my project car because of adult priorities. Today I the g/f and I put in a bunch of work leveling concrete in the basement suite, on her birthday of all days. haha Trust me when I say, there's always something that will need your attention, whether you buy a new house or a fixer upper. Just when you thought car projects were expensive!
    Adulting sucks some days.

    Still gotta get some summer wheels for the A3 and did just get a bunch of little goodies - Interior LED's and Porsche Oil and Coolant caps just showed up lol.

    Gave her a good wash and quick wax, but badly needs a polish

    Well its not that Calgary didn't have any gains... they just lost them all this year, if you had of looked last year the prices would have been very different down there.

    Edmonton's market has stayed pretty level, with only a few percentage drop in homes. Condos have seen a bigger hit though.
