Yeah pictures do not do this car justice. It is 90% done, just the RS3 kit will be painted and put on next week, Installing the CF hatch hopefully Tomorrow or Monday and installing the Viniati spoiler that same day. Then comes all the interior work. CF headliner, speaker enclosure, monitors, LED's the works.

I would say so... I think they complement the tC very well...and gives it a nice different look.

lol... funny you should mention that boostedtc1215..... I actually have a lot of experience with VW's .... but mine is mainly old school.... I used to build custom VW bugs from the ground up..... hell about 10-11 years ago I had a '67 VW custom bug that I built from a project car grace the cover of Hot VW's mag with a full center spread on it :D

Those look to be the VW monte carlos. You can grab a set on some of the vw forums for fairly reasonable price.

I dig the look.

nice wheels.
theyre called Monte Carlos, but some people call them Santa Monicas.
17x7, et38.
VW's centerbore is 57mm. Since Toyota's 5x100 centerbore is 54mm VW wheels will fit, but VWs couldnt fit a tC wheel without a spacer.
