OK, I'm going to officially introduce myself to the R32 community here.
Formally i was know as GTI_Bugsy here when I first signed up after purchasing an 08 GTI. I loved my GTI but really had a soft spot for the MK4's. After meeting Gabe (xbuelwater) I cought the HP bug and decided I had to get rid of the 2.0t FWD for a VR6 AWD...and since I prefer the looks of the MK4 over the MKV, why not?!
So thats how i got here. And here is the new-to-me .:R

Thanks for the welcome! I am completely in love whit my .:R!
James, I am planning to fill the bumper and also remove the plate holder. I want the car to look clean and smooth!
Quick question to all of you. The interior is a bit rough, mostly the soft touch is peeling and wearing away. what are folks doing to replace this or eliminate it? I tried some searching but came up with nothing.
Thanks!

You guys and your color comments hahah. I'd really like to have found a black one, but my options were limited.

My color comment was sarcastic. If I didn't buy Red I wasn't buying an R32. Period.

same here. i just bought my TR a month ago. my gti got totaled so i decided screw it, time to upgrade to an R. didnt matter if it was rainbow colored, i wanted an R and the fastest color seemed fitting
