WCC Darth Vader B7 VW Passat

[RATBASTIRD]

I was channel surfing the other night and came across the West Coast Customs show featuring a 2012 "B7" VW Passat.

I've been modifying VW's since the early 90's and currently own 2 so I'm a big VW fan.

I'm not a huge fan of the front bumper on this car but I like a lot of the concepts and the execution to those concepts are well done.

I can't find more pics of the trunk...but they had a Vader, Tie Fighter, and Stormtrooper helmet in there.

The interior of the car came out pretty well using the same stitching and fabric used in Vader's costume.

The center console was modeled after Vader's chest piece.

Post more pics if you have them and I hope this isn't a repost.

I have no words for the emotions I am feeling.

If this was dropped on its belly like all VW's should be...it would be A LOT better.

Buy those coils for your MK4 but have fun putting them in...the suspension on your car is a horror show to replace.

I do have coilovers now. I don't have them dialed all the way down because the roads where I live are crap and I don't wanna have to replace a cracked oil pan. My obsession with Star Wars armor is already the expensive hobby I'm dediated too I do though wanna widen my stance

Cracked pans and bent subframes are annoying.

I'm assuming you have a 24V under that hood because if you have a 1.8T you can dial those down to a sport drop without a problem.

The pic I posted in your car/armor thread is my MK3 Cabrio and friends GTI.

You can't fit the front of your sneaker under my rockers.

 

If you've heard the name Swoops or Hardlines By Swoops in the MK4 forums that's a friend Greg.

His MK4 is beautiful.

At least dial down those coils for another TK shot

It needs to join ROAD SQUADRON!

 

Now I want to see the other two!
