I've owned my SEL premium for about 1.5 months and feel the headlights are fine after being adjusted. The stock fog light aren't that great but can easily be replaced.
The g60 oem fpr part # is 535 635 735 5. The same part without the VW part # made by Bosch is 0 280 160 235.
I have StopTech pads and rotors on my car and have not had any issues.
I have the Michelin PA4's for my R, they are great all around in the winter especially in the dry, X Ice3 were better on ice and packed snow though.
I ran the Xice3 in some pretty severe snow this past winter. One day in particular was a big snowstorm... I took every gnarly/hilly minor road I could find... and got home with no drama and some quality hooning. Those tires are magic.
The wr g3 has great grip in the snow and ice
The R2's are really good because they stay quieter than some of the other Nokians.
I did some extensive research and found the Sachs stage 2 SMF kit. SMFs handle the higher RPM shifts better and holds up to 530nm. You will notice that although the pedal is stiffer, you have more feel. The lighter flywheel makes the engine rev quicker and becomes far more responsive. Of course, you are dropping a significant amount of rotating mass, so your car will accelerate slightly quicker. Yes, it is a little more expensive, and it does sound a little diesely at idle, but if you actually drive the car, it isn't even a question in my mind. I have had mine for around 30k miles, and it still grabs HARD with a stage 1+ APR tune. I ordered mine straight from Germany.
I have run Wilwoods on my Corrado for years with the usual rebuilding every two years. Even with ABS under full braking using the BP10 pads it would occasionally lock up fully and blow a cogged belt off the supercharger.
I did go with the Conti DWS initially. Hated the noise they made (see my post earlier). I like the P-Zero much better.
