This is what it looks like now. Cant really see all of the things wrong with it though. The frame is a little tweaked, and the suspension is out of level also, but i am assuming that its from the frame. I tried popping out that dent too, so that part at least looks a lot better.

Judging from the couple small pix you posted your Jetta looks nice. How or what makes you think the body is jacked up?

When you look at it directly from behind the passenger side wheel sits further out in the wheel well than the drivers side. Plus a couple panels don't line up exactly right. I looked at the car a while ago at one of the cruise-ins at Jimmy's, at first I thought one side was missing a wheel spacer or something but that's not the case.

The wheels look good on there. I would add smoked bumper markers (replace the yellow ones) and lower it some :tu:

I read on the tex just yesterday I think that this actually is "normal" for vw's, well it happens anyway. (the offset wheels) Like people having to get different sized spacers for both back wheels... they might be full of it though.. never know with that place.:hoff:

I dont know exactly what is wrong with it. The back driver side door doesnt line up at all, and below the door where the body is supposed to stick out, well its pushed in quite a bit. I will have more detailed pictures up soon. I also plan on taking it to a body shop to see if the frame is at all bent. I love the stance on the passenger side though.
