now *that's* slammed (VW content)
Brother-in-law's Jetta. This is the guy who married my sister and who I entrust with my Miata when the Army sends me places...
Anyway, he's in the middle of lowering his VW. Here's how it looked when I saw it last: http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5211/...edd054fa_b.jpg And under the knife: http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL11.../396410746.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL11.../396410748.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL11.../396410749.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL11.../396410752.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL11.../396410750.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL11.../396445505.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL11.../396495498.jpg |
I just dont get the point but part of me appreciates and respects the ingenuity.
But seriously, why?! |
Aesthetics mostly, I guess. It's not like the Jetta is a world class performance car. Meh.
Plus he's Mexican, so it's in his genes. |

V dubs lovin' the Mercedes wheels these days.
|
So will it actually raise the wheels off the ground? Looks like it's higher than the frame rails.
|
Don't think so, not with bags, anyway. Gravity will simply lower it until the frame touches the ground and it'll stop there. Knowing him, that won't be low enough - on his Nissan truck he ground the pinchwelds off and drug through half of the rocker before some girl rear-ended him hard enough to total it.

I feel like I remember that car from vwvortex. I had the same color jetta

it looks as low as a gently lowered miata...
|
I vote for titanium skid plates. white sparks = win.
|
Disgusting.
Now he just needs a rusty hood and a roof rack. |
VW's are gay, do not want...ever.
|
I respect the guys that take it to that level.

bmw 745 li rims might look nice

Updated with progress pics. |
Damn, that strut tower looks like it is going to be in the hood but good work nonetheless.
|
Yeah, he's considering what to do about the hood.
BTW - his last project: http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL11.../105717380.jpg |
