Shawn, 
Thanks for your help.

My jetta is a daily driver with an owner that likes to take corners and
feel the road beneath her.  I do a lot of highway driving and as such
need to have a car that can accelerate quickly and can maneuver around
unforseen obsticles just as quicly (Daun can attest to that!)

I will graduate from college this Saturday and will have a bit more to
spend on my car.  I will be flying more, so it won't be much more. 
Right now I'm trying to get ideas for what I want to do next. New front
seats with lap belts are in the back of my mind, as are larger bumpers
-- just possibilities.

I'm just learning about my car.  I wash it myself and try to keep it
clean -- If you saw my car at Cincy, that was the worst that my car has
been in a long time.  I try to keep a good coat of wax on it at all
times.  As for work on my car, my family has a reliable mechanic who
has become used to some of my stranger requests.  As I learn more about
my car, I'll probably do a bit more of the work.
