Justed picked up an 05 V

Got it for < 20 out the door. First thing I noticed was the thud coming for the driveline. So I'm thinking Creative steel mounts throughout. I am going to get it on a lift today to get a better look. But I'm almost certain I'm going that route.
Should I be looking for an 06-07 rear to upgrade now?

Looks very nice! Low miles too... unless you're planning on taking your car to the strip you'll probably be ok with the diff for now... if anything pick up some asymmetric axles from G Force

look good man, and yes that is the best color combination On the diff, unless you want to fork out the money, I would just hang tight on that, as it may last you a while. Def shifter upgrade, and mounts are always good

Welcome to the V club! Lol I'm biased to black on black but that combo actually looks nice to me! The red is a classy color. As others said... I would leave the diff alone for now but research the history on the car just so u know which one you currently have. Mounts are always a good idea and a shifter is a must unless u like driving like youre stirring a big pot of soup. Lol otherwise... ENJOY!
Oh... Sounds like u got a good deal especially with only 44k on it.

I got an 06 red/cashmere on Ebay back in November, very low miles, one owner. First purchase was shifter (UUC-dont recommend!) and Hendrix axles (highly recommend). Mounts looked OK-left em alone for now. As the others said PROTECT that DIFF! Unless you plan to drive it nice and easy all the time, which is hard to do!

j/k
I did check it out a few times online though. Good luck with it! Hopefully I'll be picking up one soon as well.

Highly advise changing out the differential fluid to something like Royal Purple Max-Gear. My 06 only has 16,000 miles on it, and changing the fluid made it feel like the car lost 250 pounds in the back end around corners.

CS has all of their tools loaned out. One was lost. Now down to four loaners. Just waiting on a return. Then they will ship my bushing and block with tool asap. I can't wait to get rid of this thud.
