I didn't used to use this forum too often and almost bought one from the'other' forum, glad I didn't though, that place is too clicky and full of Mk4 tanks!
May get a new set if V.C does any, as mine are slightly lopsided, rule of thumb, just because the spirit level is straight, doesnt mean the land the car is on is straight too!

Not much of an update, I would have liked it to be that the springs are fitted, but think that is next month now.
Thanks to Hurdy and his superfast postage and dealing skills I now have a very nice looking 2 piece badge (ready to be carbonfibre backed!!!)



Doesn't stick out as far as I thought it would.

Big Al i don't suppose you live around Plymouth mate, as i saw a Gti this afternoon that looked exactly like yours? Same alloys, same colour.

Had a visit to Midland VW today, and they beat it with a lowering stick for 3 hours, and it came out like this:





Doesn't look too different at the moment, hoping that the springs wear in after a short while,
Next up is the colour coding, found a local place that is VERY cheap, and professional too.

Lowered :happy2: wheels not my cup of tea, but then i dont like them on the rocco either. Colour coding may help pull them of? But the GTI should never have come with bare valances in the 1st place.
