Looks great imo.
I wasnt very interested in the DUB scene, but your mods and attention to detail make your car look great..!
Haters gonna hate..!..

(I was flamed after commenting in the alfa forum on how I didnt like alfas..!....wont be doing that again...,! ) The problem is the majority of pistonheads user's are "narrow minded" If it doesn't suite their personal taste or doesn't improve power to weight ratio they look down their nose at you. They just can't seem to grasp the concept that not everybody in this world share's the same tastes and interests.

Not my preference but the work you have done fitting the air ride looks superb nicely installed and professional.

Wrong in every way but nicely installed.
IMO your energies would be better channelled elsewhere now the practice has been put in.

Love the look of this mate!
I think some people need to stop looking at the 'dub' cars as a waste of time and just appreciate the work that goes into them! With all the smooth lines etc, maybe look at it as a piece of automotive art?

I preferred the standard car to be honest, a repmobile would not be the starting point for my dream car, especially not a dull as ditchwater Passat, but each to their own, at least it keeps you happy.

Right where to start? It looks too low, every change of wheels you have done looks awful.
But, if you like it fair enough. Just seems you buy Passats and make them worse!

Those Audi wheels in the top photos would look great on an Audi A8 or S4. But not really on a Passat.

And then I saw the number plates - illegal size and illegal positioning  why?! Also what was your insurance quote like when you listed all these modifications? (including using incorrect tyres for the rims). Thats what gets me about the dub scene- theres obviously a lot of care and planning which goes into the car- then the owners decide that they will flout the law on number plates and wheel/tyre combos- why not just make a car thats road legal, you are obviously capable!! Stretched tyres and mis-sized plates on a modified car just shouts RETARD IMO, meanwhile the police take a very dim view of plates and streteched tyres you are asking for trouble..

I really like those wheels. Too big and car too low (I know you've heard it all before) for me. But it does look great. Would look nice on the Merc

I think it looks cool. I can't even imagine how bad the ride is though, and how much those wheels cost! But good on ya.
