Checking in.... *bad news*

[RSC17]

Traded in the R for a more fuel efficient car back in December. Took it awhile to sell off their lot but I just found out yesterday that the kid that bought it didn't even pay the first payment before he smoked it into a wall. It had been sitting in the dealer's boneyard but was picked up two days before I stopped in. Totaled out. Another R off the road.

R.I.P!

What it looked like when I had it:

Always sad to hear of something you put so much care and attention into, meeting such an ungainly end. :frown:

Better him than you, Ricky. Still sucks.

I was thinking about powder coating my wheels black. What did you do about the center caps? Did you just paint them to the closest color in a rattle can you can find?

Thank you & I'm sorry for your loss

It was Race Ka.:Rma. Cool owner sells car. Car gets new, not as cool owner. Car pines for what it once had and commits suicide. :frown:

Either that or the new guy couldn't drive worth a shit.

But I'm sticking with the Karma story. :

I removed the stock R32 caps and replaced them with ones that just cover the axle nut. I believe they were off a MKV Jetta.
