    Good to know I'm not the only one who takes frequent breaks during a part swap to express my own joy.

    Don’t sleep on the hakkapeliitta’s for the winter, I run them on the stock wheels for Maine winter on my mk7. They grip hard in the ice and snow. Sick new wheel and tire combo, enjoying the vids!

    nah I’m upgraded to these now. I got a dark metallic blue 2015 and these would go hard.

    looking good loving the silver and white! 17s are a nice and agressive look i went with some 18s for my new setup due to going with a big brake kit soon but definetly 17s give that racecar look

    I know the PERFECT wheels for you, I run 17s on my 18R with some really good fatty Chinese tires!

    They look good.
    Gotta get that headlight issue sorted though =[

      Wowow did I just get a compliment out of you lol. Also yeah it’s a goofy thing because I either have to heat and pull apart the assembly and re glue them or pay 700 bucks ..
      I hear mixed things about the vland replacements so idk

      I always complement you lol
      If your car is lighting package (I forget if you're LP or not). Aftermarkets won't work. At least, not without running an adapter harness and coding out some of the sensors like AFS.
      If you are not LP. Look into BMP's lights. OSRAM too (if you have the coin).
      From what I've read, opening up the OEM LP housings are a major PITA and you're more likely going to break them than open them cleanly. But some do do it. Check the forums (GolfMK7/Vortex).
