24 Sep Taking it Down a Notch
There's no doubt that Volkswagen has a strong presence in the stance scene. Many corners of StanceWorks' forum are littered with varying generations of varying Volkswagens, each carrying its own unique street-sweeper stance.

We've had this C63 AMG in the fabrication garage for a little bit now, and the fab team is working hard on some very cool (and, for the time being, very secret) upgrades for this German workhorse. For now, though, here's a little sneak peek into what we're making.
