Really like that

Stance looks perfect!

[Raffe]

Looks fantastic, very clean and simple but brutally effective, nice job

The H&R coilovers look great! (I'd love to be that low) 

Have you tried them with a car full of people yet?

If so any rubbing?

Are they easy to adjust?

I've just got the H&R springs on standard shocks, but I'd love to go that 10-15mm lower 

I don't get any rubbing at all, and to me, I think they perform great! It's just that extra drop would look amazing 


Great work on the Gti btw

Thanks mate that's just what I wanted to achieve

I have run the car full up with no rubbing front or back and I have some poke on the rear.
Before I bought the coilovers I was told how low they can run and still not rub I didn't really believe it but I have to say it's amazing just how good they ride.
They are very easy to adjust height as all coilovers are as for adjusting dampening the fronts are top adjustable but the rears need the shock coming off,compressing and rotating to adjust it this is the only downside to these.

I currently run just 2 clicks on the rear from full soft and one on the front.

looks awesome!  I think I'm just gonna go for springs but yours is the holy grail of drops!

Looks good on the coilovers, just not a massive fan on so much dish on the fronts of a mk5! Does sit sweet on those coils though.. need another mk5 in my life

So at the weekend i bought some new seats that included a 400 mile round trip to collect them but im so happy i did!

there originally from a gti and have the correct gti embossed on them,the guy i bought them from has decided to track the car so sold these off and the car had less than 4000 miles on it!
sorry for the crappy iphone pics

God that looks good!!!!

The seats look like they've been really looked after, good find!!!

[Top Cat]

They do look in great condition.    a little shiny though. I wouldn't worry about using them either, the bolsters will sag no matter how careful you are. It isn't expensive to get the bolsters redone every now and then.

I like the wheels you got it really suits the car

And them seat look so good
