    Time for something new in regards to the grille.

    I just ordered smoked angeleye headlights as well. Those are going to look sweet!
    Im always keeping my eye out for a body kit....but theyre so expensive for the B5.5s....hopefully now that the B6 is out, the B5.5 kits will drop in price some.

    Ive thought about painting my lowers, like this:

    And I like this front lip:

    A lot have run into problems painting those lowers though, due to the material that theyre made out of.

    Your car is awesome. What kind of engine does it have? I'm not familiar with volkswagon at all. Your rims are really unique, I like them. I don't really like the eyelids but it looks like the other two cars you posted have them too, o well.

    The car is bad ass, the eyelids give it an aggressive look more than the one it already has, the wheels I believe are Enkei (correct me if I'm wrong plz).

    Yeah, theyre enkeis.

    Engine is 1.8 Turbo

    Ive been waiting for the boeser hood, which extends down lower over the top edge of the headlights. Still in the production phase though.

    man you have a avery nice passat. the front lip you can get from driver gear from VW if you want to but I am sure a aftermarket company makes them too. Nice ride

    just recently when i went to the track i saw a W8 passat and it had if not the same a similar body kit. the guy even showed me the catalogue where he had puschased it from. thats why i am wondering why you can't find it in driver gear.

    i lub them rims man, and the car, the eyelids are ok but i think it would look better if they had a more rounded bottom edge, its to straight for the curves that your car has...all in all its a very nice passat, keep it up man and post the pics when ur new grill and headlights are in

    I must say pics dont do your car justice. It looks even better in person. The Enkeis fit the car perfectly.

    that's a pretty nice looking hood, i remember you showing pictures of what that would look like when you first got your passat. how many different sets of rims have you already gone through? As always, very clean and stylish. on painting the lowers, i have never seen any abs/urethane color match perfectly with metal or fiberglass. it would look badass though, for sure.
