It rubs a good amount so I removed the fender liner but it still needs a little fender work. they will be pulled slightly. but Water By The Bridge was this weekend. it was freezing but good to see old friends.

update, has the brakes on, they handle so much better than stock even with race brake fluid... no brake fade on the track on stock size rotors, im probably not going fast enough. :/

Loving it, more things to come this winter, such as oil pump rebuild,

hopefully ill get a roll bar in and seats n harness,

Heres the Brakes, from an old boxter non s, 4 pot brembos, They are fabulous, work on stock size rotor.

Also just put the wheel studs on today too, so much nicer than lugs.

Edit: sorry my wheels are dirty AF, about to change to daily wheels now since these are on and i can put my spacer on.

The track will do that! Just read through your build, coming along nicely man. I love the yellow painted tire text, you have officially inspired me to do the same when I get my new tires. You ever get your DSG issue figure out? What was it?
