Not yet.  I just had a quick look at the group buy section and couldn't see anything.  I'd be very interested though!

Someone from www.autops.co.uk put out a feeler yesterday and said he would put a GB on today.

Do the H&R sit lower than Eibach springs on the GTi?

Yes I think Eibach are 20/25mm and H&R are 30mm.

here is the group buy & fit but its too far for me!  http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,47578.0.html

Sorry to jump on here....but how much would the ride be affected by lowering the car?

[GrayMK5GTI]

If you buy progressive springs the ride will be very much the same as the top of the spring is soft and the rest of the spring is hard (to reduce body roll etc). They only feel harsher on very bumpy roads.

I've got H&R springs BTW
