I am dumb. What does the graphic on the door mean?

It 'means' nothing it's just a design. I just liked it so I put it on. It is a replica of the graphics seen on the Lancer Evo in 2 Fast 2 Furious.

A mods list would be nice...Very nicely done! Wheels are intriguing!

Cool ride, the Axis TC rims are awesome. You have peaked my interest with your "soon to come" I also own an APH motor. I have thought of trading up to a turbo S but then I would lose the uniqueness of my New Beetle. I will subscribe to this thread and check back with each post. I would love to put a K03sport on my car but I think I need to finish my body kit first.
Keep the mods comming!

I never really understood why people put graphics on a daily driver car. It always just looks out of place. Not yours though, very nice. I love how you tied it all in with the addition of the new wheels. Looks great! Also which spoiler is that on the back?

Something I wanted to say but could not think of a tactful way to sy it. Well spoken Steven.

Why have i never seen this sweet ride before??
Holy poop man, i love the blue interior! That car must turn more than a few heads. I'm not sur how i feel about the body kit, but it certainly works well. Very inspiring!

[blaquea8]

[yelojkt]

Good luck with the K03S and chipped ECU. Let us know how it goes.

How did you remove the steering wheel spokes to paint them? Mine are starting to look a bit shoddy...
