Whoa Whoa Whoa...where is this Ashley u speak of???

...Jer, cross over to the OTHER Darkside and see me DO WERK SON! I think I will make u proud

 

You always do, Josh.
She's in that photography link that Stickers linked in his post.

 

I think the silver bar looks fantastic, but might look a little out of place since there isn't much else that's silver.

And the Jetta's great, I'm having a lot of fun with it. But I've been trying to master heel-toes and the pedal placement is horrible.

 

do the "A" in blue to match the headlights, leave the rest black

 

Stickers! What kind of materials did you use for the rig? Is it easily affordable?

 

Thanks...yeah, I agree...I liked the bar...or the hitler mustache look with just the hood done...but I think I'll dig the black best. Honestly, I googled images for type s grills last night and to be honest...the "black chrome" isn't very dark AT ALL. it looks more like just regular old chrome. No thanks...I'd rather deal with rock chips. Plus, the emblem is a different size I think and i have an Amp'd emblem.

About your clutch/gas pedal...have you tried playing around with your seat distance from pedal? Is there a checkvalve in the jetta?!?! I couldn't smoothly drive my TL to save my life when i had the checkvalve in the clutch slave cylinder.

I did red and blue at one point (not at the same time) and it was overdone. When adding accent colors there's such a fine line between it looking cool and being overdone. I'm trying to stop before I hit that.

Austin, click the link he posted before...it shows you what you need to make that rig. but that angle of the picture would make your wheel gap horrible...seriously...

 

Okay I'll say thanks but it's a sarcastic thanks

 

Typical kid...needs to be spoonfed.

^^oh, that's sarcasm too...sorry if that wasn't clear.

 

Red text!

I was being sarcastic because you took a stab at my wheel gap

 

No sir...I was saying it would make it more pronounced from that angle. I bet even MY car would look like it was ridin high from that angle.

You were right about the rig though...it was Morgan and not Tyler, sorry.

PS...we'll just get regular rolling shots together.

 

Sounds good, you're looking at some $$ to do that kind of rig. It's good to have the rig for the angles it provides though, and I'm sure it could be used for other things too.

 

...giggity...

 

Is that her name? I've met her once and I only referred to her as "Plaid Skirt" because of the picture lol.

She's apparently in the Air Force lol

Nooooo she def has a fantabulous booty

Right? Unlike Tyler over here I like my balls (er, ball ) to be in my pants not her purse

Stop trying to hit on Tyler, J.

I don't know I'll have to ask my buddy about it. It'll be later tonight when he responds though, he works midshift on base (11pm-11am) so he sleeps most the afternoon. I'll text you with the details.

 

We'll see if it more affordable than what Morgan posted lol

 

How about a thank you...doofus.

Ashley...HAIII!

 

Do you still have your TL? What's going on with it?

 

 

What's an Acura??? Apparently my phone has never heard of Acura because it always tries to change it to Aura.

 

You have to add the word to the swype dictionary...remember, like you did for asshat and butthole?

 

 

LOL...you dug that one, huh!??!

 

haha yeah I almost chocked on my protein shake after reading Steven's and your post

 

Oh, you dont swallow?

 

^^^ no i like to spit remember

 

spit mad fyahhhh!


Stopping by Acura in a bit to pick up my clutch spring assembly... hoping that that and some high temp urea grease will shop the incessant fkn creaking from my clutch pedal. I cringe every time I drive right now.

 

I like hearing noises when I push it in

 

NOOOOOOO-you're not going to do something to your TL, are you?????

Just giving you shit-it's been almost 2 weeks since I've had the chance to update your thread's date.


For a while, I was updating it daily.....

 

Trust me Steven...when I see the date changed, I ALWAYS know it's you.
Yeah, if I figure out this squeak, expect a thread update AND probably a DIY for the garage.

Thanks and have a wonderful weekend!

 

Don't forget the bottom seat fasten/release clip

 

You know something funny...I actually didn't forget but didn't end up asking for it, I'm going to start putting together a list of little odds and ends that I'd like to replace. I'd feel dumb for going to the dealership JUST for that...

 

Bad move. Next thing you know, you'll walk out with a $600 invoice

 

I know...but at least I won't have made the 20, thirty dollar trips there to spend it! I'll spend it all in one shot!

 

Jeremy, we all know, that you are only good for one shot. And quick on the draw too.

 

but really. J, moar car pics. I know you got time. we all hear this when we see the pics

 

 

Thanks Sean...
Ironically, on Saturday after washing both cars, decided to try and self teach myself some manual mode stuff...took about 30 pictures..went inside to take a look and what do you know...not ONE USABLE picture. I deleted the whole thing out of frustration. I was messing with settings and speeds and filters. Meh...got very discouraged.

Took a few with my phone...Saturday and this morning. Came out ok, but not the same DSLR quality, obviously.

Also, my spring install on my clutch pedal did nothing for the creaking clutch noise. On the other hand, the urea high temp honda grease I bought for the spring, I used my syringe and injected it into the master cylinder and immediately it stopped. So win win...guess need to see how long it lasts. If it doesn't last, i'll have to replace the master.

J.

 

 

car looks clean as fawk Jeremy.....

but to be very honest after seeing the shots with the DSLR this is just not cutting it....your car is begging for them nice shots....

you sure you dont have even 1 pic you can share with us

 

OMG....new pictures!

 

LOL...in my haste and annoyance, I deleted ALL the pictures from Saturday...some were blurry and ALL were either way over exposed or under exposed due to the shade of the tree. I don't know where I went wrong...

I'll give it another whirl this week though. Steven, thanks for the thread update...I know visiting a non contrast car's build thread must be taxing for you.

Anil..thanks for the compliment too.
