nice TII , wish I had one, just paint that rear windshield wiper and it'll be flawless. What are you going to swap into it?

The engine is tired from being beat on so i'm installing a streetported TII engine that I built late last year into it with with a S5 hybrid turbo. I'm also installing the Microtech LT-8 EMS from my old TII into this one. And i'll be installing my coilovers. Lastly, i'm converting the burgundy interior to black. I'll probably do it all over the course of 2 weekends. Engine/EMS one day, coilovers the next and interior over 2 days.

haha...I'm too lazy to put my spare one on. For some reason, the original owner thought it would be cool to paint the rear wiper arm red...
