Much better now! :happy2:

I still have to fit one from a mk6 R to replace mine after a year of having it at home. I plan on replacing mine after I get my car back from the mechanic. :smiley:

Thanks I hated that black one as it keeps on getting horrible dust marks over it and I cant stand the look of it so get cracking as It's a 2 minute job :signLOL:

Definitely a lot better than sitting in your cupboard and I'm glad my chrome surround fitted to it :wink: Thanks  :grin:

Dude I've not even showed the misses as shed flip psycho style  :signLOL:

You should try east London and the mega high ones here lol I'm seriously worried I won't clear them on my road but it's only when taking the wife and kids put shopping really.

Why you interested?.
If it goes it'd be an A3 Quattro possible S-Line as I've now been up close stripped and driven one. don't like how the front splash guards are fitted with both torx and HORRIBLE push fit clips which are a nightmare to remove.

I know faz but I've had my mk1 tt dropped 40mm on amax springs and a votex front splitter and surprisingly it worked out fine so here's hoping I'll get away with the golf although there's a slight nose dive with the golf and my tt sat a little more level but we'll see.
You've also asked Shoduchi about koni shocks. found my post where you've already asked him about where too?, and thee shall find thee answer  :signLOL:
