Default 1 of 1 '03 track, 847 of 1200 Fehrenheit GLI

Wasn't too busy this morning so went to the park and took some pictures with a friend of mine. Originally, my Z was PPW but the owner before me had it repainted a graphite color. The job was terrible. Some spots felt like they hadn't been clear coated, rough to the touch, didn't paint the engine bay or the door sills. Long story short I had it repainted Intralagos Fire. To my knowledge , it's the only '03 in this color.

The GLI is pretty sweet too. Intake, headers, exhaust, and tune; makes the thing get up pretty quick.



















EDIT December 2012: Got some Volks a few months ago, finally got around to taking some pictures today.

dayum that paint job came out PERFECT! It's rare to see a painted car that has the factory gloss to it. Very nice job. If you don't mind me asking, how much did it run you?
