Meet Boneca (doll in portugese) — she's 1 year old.

It's all started back in 1993 when I bought my first vw in Germany (Golf tdI 1989) it was the time when I fell in love with vw cars family. Since that time I had two Jettas (1995 and 1999) and two Passats: B5 1999 V6 and finally my 2003 GL B5.5 Boneca.

When I first got Passat I wanted it to be different so I started modifying. I bought a set of new wheels and a radio but once I found the Club B5 I realize that there is no limit to what you can do. After some tine the B5one of the North East was created and it's become the best group to be part of and the best place to make new friends. It's very cool to have people that share the same interests and live in your area.

The first modification to Boneca was suspension set up. I went with Eibach springs and shocks. It's not the most extreme setup you can go with but it was good for me. I got the drop I wanted and at the same time I didn't loose comfort of the ride.

After the suspension I started on aerodynamics: I added Votex Body Kit (front spoiler, rear valance and diffuser and side skirts), Hofele rear lip spoiler, Kamei front grill and eyelids.

The lighting was upgraded with Hella micro DE fog light kit and OEM euro switch.

To add sporty look and feel I added 17x8' AMG Monoblock Aero II Replica wheels wrapped in Kumho Z 225/45x17 tires and Dieselgeek short shifter.

The other projects are including: OEM sunglass holder, rubber mats, blue mirrors. Sharan short antenna, Momo sphere shift knob, Cobra radar detector, Net optic interior trim, Weathertech cargo mat, Proclip cell phone mount, Pioneer 9400 CD/MP3 player, debagged and tinted with Madico onyx.

Some of the future projects in my mind are: R32 steering wheel, lighting upgrade (Philips bulbs) and In-dash DVD monitor...

I'd like to say thank you to all B5ers at B5one, especially to Bryan (B Dizzle Fizzle - President) for giving me the chance to represent my car for this month, Ron (b518t) for introducing me to B5one club and Julian (djjewelz) for taking great pictures.
