Volkswagen is about to stop making the Eos convertible due to weak demand, but some people have a soft spot for the only convertible hardtop made by this German company. Project Eos R36 predictably belongs to a hardcore VW fan, who wanted something entirely original.The base car is a pre-facelift Eos model, not the most exciting car in the world. Fortunately, both the Eos and the Scirocco are based on the same PQ35 platform, so the skin graft wasn't that complicated. Changes started with the front and included an aftermarket Scirocco bumper, a stock hood, grille and headlights.Fender flares were sculpted out of metal by a company called KTS Karosserietechnik, who probably had to work long hours to get the car ready for Worthersee. At the back, they installed a new bumper with exhaust tips that come out in the center. We believe that piece comes from the Golf 6 R, while the pipes themselves are made by HG-Motorsport.Custom air suspension from AccuAir was installed, together with copper-colored alloy wheels from Vossen. The same color is used for the piping that was added to the borders of the leather seats.We don't know precisely where the engine came from, but the R36 is a V6 FSI mill that is mostly associated with the Passat B6 saloon. One of these bad boys puts out about 300 horsepower and is a snug fit under the new bonnet of the Eos.
