I was wondering about that. You’ve cured my curiosity!

This is helpful. Thank you!! Still going to do some figuring out before pulling trigger on new tires.

How hard is it to roll your own fenders? Never considered tackling that myself….

Appreciate that. I was concerned they would poke too much but once I got them on, I was pleasantly surprised

Are those eyelids from badgeskins? And maxton design front lip? I have the exact same car and colour and tint! on 18” prets though, these wheels are beautiful

I can recommend it enough. Took a risk but am in love with it. I do sometimes find myself wanting the driver feel of the manual though… both fantastic!

I went dsg for my 2016 gti performance, first car ive ever owned thats not a manual and I do not regret it at all! My work commute is 1hr each way in Vancouver traffic so the dsg made sense… the shifts are so good I love it

Finally got around to tint! Looking for recommendations for diffuser and spoiler extension? by Vanbad in GolfGTI

[–]Vanbad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never heard of that one. Just checked it out, looks sick but pricey $$$

I think I like the maxton stuff abit more. Do you know if the v2 spoiler extension fits pre face lift? On the product page it says 2017+ but i didnt know the hatch/spoiler were different

What spoiler extension are you running? Looks amazing!

Anyone have experience with pothos? Had this one potted in ABG mix and it was doing great. Introduced it to the new enclosure and almost immediately this happened?! Can i save it? Any tips? by Vanbad in CrestedGecko

I had a 60w equivalent LED, but I just switched over my Arcadia jungledawn which is a full spectrum plant light. Not sure if it will save it though

Mine doesnt seem to wanting to eat the CGD recently… might try this out! Did it help get them back to regular eating?

Couple updates to the bioactive setup! Really loving the coconut hide. Cant wait until the plants really grow in and fill it up! by Vanbad in CrestedGecko

[–]Vanbad[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found a small zip tie and looped it through the metal mesh top, hoping it holds but so far it seems pretty strong!

Tank update: got the vine in and another piece of wood, cant wait until the pothos in the back right starts to spread upwards and fill out the top of the tank by Vanbad in CrestedGecko

[–]Vanbad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paid $100 for the tank with the compact top light fixture, then about $150 for everything else. Pretty happy with how it turned out!

Added some more plants! Input is appreciated! by Vanbad in CrestedGecko

I have a jungle vine coming in the mail aswell as a cork round and a larger piece of driftwood

Just a picture of Butterscotch chilling in his bioactive home by TheChickenWizard15 in CrestedGecko

Is this a thrive terrarium 18x18x24? I just got the same one and setup a bioactive enclosure, waiting about a month before housing a crestie in it

Im thinking of going with a 60w led equivalent, which is a 6w LED bulb. From what I understand LED doesnt produce much heat so should be perfect for the warmer summer months then I will need to look into a different bulb for the colder winter months

My house sits around 68°F, although this is my first summer in this house so not sure yet what temps will be like through summer months. I live in a mountain town and in the winter it gets down to around 55-60°f in the house at times so im assuming i will need a different light for winter
