Yall love some tool box building. This time we are doing $3500, a cart, a box, and a bunch of tools.
The fun part is, this whole set is going to a tech school student!
Doing this is always super fun
At AVF in Helen, GA āŖ@Deutscheautopartsā¬ and I did a poster for our Meet Up. Well since the poster was huge hit, we opted to do some more!!! If you are thinking you want one, id get on it. ;)

Also if you came to the meet up or to the LiquiMoly booth to get a poster and hang with Paul and I, THANK YOU!!! Im really blown away by how many of y'all took time out of an awesome weekend to come say hi. It means the world.
Well I mostly did what I set out to do. Finish the R for Wookies in the Woods.
The R isn't totally finished. I have some coding/programming things still to work through. But I did drive it, and I did hit Tail of the Dragon a couple times.
IF you have been following, you know my thoughts on air ride. While I dont think I can give full feedback yet, I can say.. I don't hate it. There is some tuning that needs to happen to get it better. Im actually pretty optimistic about that.
Finally on the body kit. I know some of you love it. Some of you hate it. I think thats awesome. The fact that we all like different things is one of the fun things about cars. Doing this body kit was WAY out side my normal OEM+, keep it factory vibe. That was the point.
Thank you all for following the series. And you haven't seen the last of this lil banana LOL
Still plenty of details to sort out and computer problems but she is ready for WOOKIES!
Lot of you asked how finished the car is.
Well this was Tuesday at 10am. Worked into the wee hours of the morning, and Iām a lot less finished than needed to be. It was one of those days where everything just went wrong š¤£š¤¦āāļø
Itās going to be another long day, but hopefully the car gods are on my side today.
I have to bring the car back to the bodyshop complete tomorrow!
Video drops Sunday š³š³š³
Which wheels do you like better?
Wheels are such a hard thing for me. Wheels look good on paper and awful on the car, or vice versa!!
Iām not sure either will be the final choice. What are some other options that would be sick on the golf???
Episode 4 ALL ABOUT MODS, drops tomorrow 10:30 am eastern.
Will it FINALLY START? RS3 Swapped Golf R ~ Part 3

Episode 4 is still in in edit! Today Iām at the bodyshop helping Juan get the last repairs done before final paint. And body kit š
Itās like sending it for all the plastic surgery!
So long 2.0t, get ready to getā¦.BeDAZALLED(š).
We are full grind mode for editing the first part of the swap. @autobodystrong worked his magic for the body side, now @deutscheauto and I get moving on the swap! So much happens in this next video.
While it may be a mistake, we try to cover as much of the detail as possible. I donāt want to make a āitās 3 bolts and the engine comes outā video. I want to be sure that, even if you never plan to do this, you still get some cool insight.
Be sure to set your alarm šØ Sunday 10:30am eastern!
For the pollā¦ Do you like longer more details, or shorter and less details.
Working super hard to get my wrecked golf r back in action. Video series starts soon!!!!!
