    Think he did a DIY mono wiper using the stock mechanism.

    I love it ray! you're on the money. I'd prefer a beaten up daily over a trailer queen anyday!

    It looks like he just moved the passenger wiper over a few notches on the pin that does the rotating. It's just a matter of unscrewing the bolt and moving the wiper arm a bit. I don't know why I didn't think of this when I was fixing mine!

    just doesn't do it for me.

    colour coded wheels really doesn't look good at all imo.

    stance is wikid and body is silk though. roof is cool too.

    overall doesn't want to make me rush out an get a mk3 though...

    Am I alone in thinking that dude's old car actually looked better in a few ways? I reckon if you shave the mk3 bumper you have to leave the body line in it to look good like on the blue car. Don't get me wrong the green car is beautiful but I think having a fully smoothed/shaved front bumper and then rubstrips on the side of the car looks mismatched. Like the car is half mk4 half mk3 or something. Maybe if you were gonna shave the line in the front bumper you could shave the rubstrips too? But idk, I haven't seen any cars with shaved rubstrips that I like.
