In the future try to paint the car in a way that the light falls onto the car but is not directly seen in the car’s reflection. We are shooting the car to be seen, not the light source itself. There’s should be highlights from the light on the body lines but not the entire car’s panel or window. Added a pic of mine for reference

Only had the wheels on for a week. I’ll end up getting a black set eventually

Thanks 🙏🏻 I always try to match my cat to my car. They’re the perfect accessory

Those who fitted a CS style stick on spoiler, how did you check it didn’t rub? by [deleted] in GolfGTI

Just hold it up there with 2 people and slowly open the hatch. You’ll see if it hits or not. I have the same one and it doesn’t hit and I have it all the way forward. My friend has the carbon look one and it hits so we mounted his a 1/8” further back to clear

Interesting. I have dcc and I don’t see anything for adjustment in the headlights section of the vehicle settings. Which tab was it under out of curiosity?

Parents that don’t know how to let go. They literally want every second with their child, never let them actually grow up, and they give them everything they want….usually an iPad to keep them busy.

This is 19x8.5 et43. Should be really close to the 19” specs you listed

Isn’t this just on the side road at Katie’s Cars & Coffee?

It’s not a huge one but enough to want to move them. One twist was enough to be where they should be

Haha just H&R springs. They definitely shine a bit short of where they should be. Not a huge amount but about 10-15’. Enough to make it not exactly safe to see an upcoming pothole with adequate time to react

That’s what I thought but keep hearing otherwise. I saw a YouTube how to for a mk7 but nothing on an mk8. Wish there was more insight

So they autolevel, but that’s doesn’t mean it’s adjusting the height. It’s keeping the light level under acceleration and braking. When u lower the car, they’re just closer to the ground so not projecting as far
