OEM Volkswagen Fender

In Germany, tires cannot protrude significantly past the fenders of a vehicle. Specifically, German law dictates that the tire tread must be covered, and the tire should not protrude more than 5 centimeters (2 inches) beyond the wheel well.

Pros: tire tread must covered
Cons: tire cannot protrude
Vehicle: Volkswagen Jetta

Bilstein Shock absorbers
mokoosh
  • Bottoming:
Rating 4.0

I made my own poor man's B12 kit! Except mine is now complete with badged housings and early top mounts. No bump stops in the front and vestigial foam stops in the back. I went mild on the cutting. The rears could go up a lot or down a little without cutting. Excited to see how she sits. Took some before measurements for what it's worth.

Pros: complete with badged housings
Cons: no bump stops in front

NGK Spark plug
rallytsd
  • Starting:
Rating 4.0

NGK BKUR6ET-10, stock number 2397. With every other car I've owned, the first symptom of failing plugs is missing at higher rpms. In the AEG engine, the first symptom is that it gets hard to start. Do you find that too?

Pros: failing plugs hard to start
Cons: missing at higher rpms
Part number: 2397

GRAF Water pump

When you do get a pump, buy the entire pump (front and back hemisphere) (like a GRAF brand). If this engine has been moving grit, the rear half of the water pump will be worn more open and not be able to move fluid efficiently.

Pros: efficient fluid movement
Cons: worn rear half

PIAA Fog lights

  • Fog visibility:
Rating 2.5

I was able to fit PIAA 530s in the lower center grill. It was not fun. I have added fog lists to Civics and JDM fog lights to Subaru Wrx where you have to cut ends of the bumper support, and this was by far one of the more difficult bumpers to remove. The lack of anything to bolt to was a pain. The lower support ends up being about 2\" below the fog light mount. I ended up using brackets that extend out from where fogs lights would be on a MKVII pre refresh. The honey comb of the grill is also not lined up vertically, so fitting 3.75\" fogs was tight. The smaller PIAA LP 270 would have worked better. It also has more mounting options. The wiring harness on the 270 is also better. The harness for the 530s looks cheap. No relay, cheesy fuse older, and small gauge wiring.

Pros: LP 270 better mounting
Cons: 530s difficult to fit, 530s cheap wiring
