very nice ride. About the "black translucent strip" that hides all of your IR Eyes... what is it? Smoked plexi?

Sure is. I got it like 4 years ago at some beat rice-boy shop for like $5 bucks. I sure as hell would never use it on a window but it worked ok on a small portion of plexi.

$5 was extremely cheap, you got a very good deal.

LOL...Thanks for the props though! Actually, yes it was the last Jetta (that wasn't a base GL) on the lot. But that's not why I went with it...I could have ordered one with the turbo. Although I'm not big into speed. But in all fareness the 2.0 is a bit under-rated. It is a fine, rock-solid engine that has worked for years. I got the manual tranmission because I like to feel connected to my car even though I'm not worried about my 1/4 mile slip. Also, not to mention I'm only 21 and my insurance in CA isn't exactly worth the extra "uhmmff"...ESPECIALLY in Los Angeles bumper-2-bumper traffic
