Another update is my plastidip project. I plan on redoing the whole car at this point. I thought about matte grey with green accents, but I might just go a soft matte baby blue. Here is my temporary work to see how it would look. It's back to stock now and doesn't look like this anymore.

Oh yea, you can now see the project fog setup :)
At this point I'm looking for a High Pressure Fuel Pump as I'm getting a lot of fuel cuts which is putting rain on my power parade. It's a darn $1000 part which is annoying. I'm also looking at a front brake setup from a boxter.
Lot's to do before summer comes. Thought I'd share how it's all going.
So no pictures for this post. Just some mechanical updates.
Upgraded the High Pressure Fuel Pump, KMD internals now producing more pressure. Upgraded to Audi R8 CoilPacks and some new bosch spark plugs to match.
Software was now upgraded to match the fuel pump. Peak gains probably didn't change (maybe the torque) but the low mid range is now spanking! :)
Dyno in the summer at some point :D
Great work!!
The latest iteration of the car.... picked up a GTI grill to reduce the green dominance on the front.
Power wise, I'm now Stage 2+ fully with a KMD High Pressure Fuel Pump. Very happy with the performance. Numbers on the website say 280hp crank and 330tq from APR but I'll wait until I get onto a dyno again.
hope you like...

Car looks awesome
love the car but not a fan of the green ears.
Looks great David. Making me want a VW.
This has put a new perspective on jettas for me. That's BBQ sauce man ( A1 )
Don't think of ditching the green ears! Looks awesome man, impressive upgrades as well
Looking good!
needs airbags and BBS RS's

Thanks for the positive feedback. The green gets attention...I'm happy with less green on the grill.
I'm considering some sort of door sill vinyl. Not sure yet.
Saw you last week on Strasburg dude. Car looks awesome. Did I read somewhere you were Stage 2?
That would be my neck of the woods. Stage 2+ which essentially means new high pressure fuel pump :)Quote:

love the tail lights, but would it raise attention with the cops?
I've actually been around a bunch of cops around town. On the highway and even sitting in front of them at the stop lights in town. Nothing yet. They are very clear and still show up red and amber quite clearly. So no I haven't been pulled over and fingers crossed it stays that way.
Never seen taillights like that, pretty sweet! go Green Lantern haha
I always enjoy seeing your car in person. Looks awesome! Very one of a kind.
I was thinking a while ago whether tail lights could be tinted something other than red or black and still look good. I didn't think it would but it actually looks sweet! Do the headlights next and you got yourself a green hornet haha.
Very unique ride for sure :thumbsup
Love the looks!
Well it was time for a switch again, so I thought I'd update.
The Jetta looked like this when I sold it....
