Vietnam flashbacks at cracking the autodimming glass on my BMW's wing mirrors

Who cares??? Ugliest golf ever made lol.

With all things considered however, Moog has made some very tasteful mods/corrections to an otherwise awkwardly designed vehicle.

Leestons says:

This feels like old school MCM and I love it.

Hey Marty and Moog I recently bought my first car and I’ve got a video suggestion that might help people in similar situation to me which is how do I figure out which wheels will fit my car and what tyres are best

"It should sound like this" rave music

Is it weird that I watched the show, then came here to watch the ad for the show I just watched? I feel like I was reverse-raped? Is that even a thing? I'll tell you this much, it felt like a thing…not an entirely unpleasant thing, but a thing that definitely "happened" to me and I couldn't stop it…but I secretly want to "happen" again. Is that weird?

Congratulations Moog on your BRAND NEW GOLF R, everything you have done to the car is bloody brilliant, it looks beautiful, love the sound and colour scheme

SKRMZ says:

Never understood the silver caps on golfs.. my 7.5 came with paint matched caps and they didn’t charge me for it thankfully

areasevenpro says:

You forgot to jack up the car.

Funny i have black caps on my rline jetta and I hate them! Wish they were body colored.

STAG162 says:

0:20 makes it sound so saucy..

shakercuda says:

Can you post the part numbers for genuine VW black mirror caps? The only ones I have seen are Chinese.

aserta says:

For anyone doing this mod, if you don't plan to die with the car, especially if new, keep the caps in storage.

Jon Elias says:

Where can I find an uncompressed audio version of your latest single?

Ryan Newton says:

1st step should always be jack up your car! XD

Marcel Englmaier says:

do a heated mirror swap

Mayo says:

cool, now i know how to 'get' some spare mirrors

brandon cloutier says:

You should post more like these!

Kyle Anderson says:

you can also tilt the glass all the way down with the door controls and reach the two tabs to release the cap vs removing the glass itself!

NewJersey Damo says:

Got to admit the first thing I noticed on the car was the crap looking silver mirror caps. Glad you were ahead of it and swapped them to black, looks mint!

TheIchigo1324 says:

I fully expected the first step was to jack up the car

Things and Stuff says:

Wait, just to be clear, the first step is NOT to jack up my car?

knotty Moose says:

My girlfriend wanted to do this mod but she used a wall to take the cap off instead, was super quick tho would definitely recommend

Mark Rizzo Field says:

Love this car and what you have already done to it. The colour is insane with the full black wheels, love the grill light bar and can't wait to see some mad driving footage. You killed it with this one Moog!!!
