what front bumper is that? i want it for my MK3.5 cabby or is a custom make from an R32? i wish did a VR swap all i have done to mine is a TT 266 aka 270 cam and nuespeed intake and full custom 2 1/4 exhust with mandrel bent pipes rokar coilovers and +15 offset xxr rims
@davelinger89 ah that makes sense, I drive a 2004 2.8l vr6 24v gli but mine is stated to hit 200 hp, was yours a 12v or is there some other difference in the engines?
I Love you car.It's looks so nice. I Also have a vw cabrio (1998) I want to do alot of work to it.. and get some ideas on what to do.. i also love you head lights where did you get them?if you also have some tips for me let me know

@2000VR Made the front one from a stock R32 front grille badge, a 2.0 badge for the 2, and a 1.8T badge for the 8. Rear was the same only I started with a stock R32 rear hatch badge.
if you shave the sides it will look so much better with the R bumper, looks great though, how much modification did it take to make the R bumper work, as far as i know the MK3.5 cabrio is narrower than a MKIV front end?
Hey man i'm loving this car...i have just recently purchesed me a 1995 cabrio and i was looking for some body parts to make this car stand out...if you have any good websites that would have parts for my car please let me know!!!
@phatso786 yes, there are numerous laws in numerous states. and a federal emissions law about swapping engines. however they are all loosely enforced, cept when going obd2 to obd1
Beautiful...Beautiful...Beautiful!!!

How much Horsepower was it running? what does R28 stand for btw?
OmnipotentV 11 months ago
@OmnipotentV It has a 2.8l VR6 - so the R28 stands for the 2.8l VR6, like R32 stands for the 3.2l VR6 in those. It made about 170whp.

OmnipotentV 10 months ago
@OmnipotentV Yep, it's a 12v. The Cabrio can only fit mk3 engines, and the 24v VR6 wasn't introduced until the mk4 generation.

@2000VR Thanks. I like the VR6 emblem, but would rather have it say 2.8 or R28. It's more unique that way, but you already know that.

your cabrio was sick at h20. too bad it was muddy out. really nice dub. how long did it take you to get to this point.
breakinben0115 2 years ago
Nice video!
I think you overdid it a bit with the closeups.
Maybe a bit more of overview, that would give a more pleasant feeling. For example, 2:93 was the first time I saw it as cabrio. ;)
But actually an impressive movie worthy for 5 stars. Keep going it!

As far as I know, WV doesn't have that law. And I go to a "friendly" inspection station.
