    Hah, thanks. It's being tinted today so will look a bit different, but I'm done after that.

    The car came tinted except the front windows, getting that done this weekend then next weekend getting clear bra put on.

    The sline suspension arrives today but I wont put them on until I choose and purchase wheels.

    Suspension has arrived, waiting to get it installed.



    Got the front windows tinted to match the rest of the windows.

    Clear bra install tomorrow, already got 1 rock chip... so disappointing.

    Need to hard wire the radar detector, I hate having that cord running from the cig lighter. Any tips on an easy way to tap into a power source?


    Wheels should be ordered soon and will get the suspension installed when that time comes.

    Weathertech mats came in, love them.

    Things I noticed after about a week of owning it:
    - gas mileage is ok but not great, I have had 2.0t's since 2005, 6 total. Not what I am used to but I understand its heavier and AWD.
    Smaller tank then the passats and cc I have had, closer to a GTI tank
    - wtf is up with brake dust? how long do these pads last and are there better pads to replace them after?
    - I got a rock chip sooner then I thought, getting clear bra put in tomorrow
    - Transmission seems sluggish, I have had 2 DSG, 2 auto and 2 manual VW.
    - over all its been great, like is said all i have had since 2005 were VW's. This definitely feels more refined.

    Hi I am new to this thread and I have a 2013 allroad and I was looking for some more information reguarding the b8 s-line avant springs and suspension. I have tried to find just the springs but I would like the get the same set up as I saw here.
