Looks lovely that pal.

Do te front wheels rub the arch at all...looks very low.

It's as low as I can go @ the moment due to the drive shafts hitting the chassis if there pot holes in the road. I don't get any rubbing on the arch tho. This maybe down to running slightly thinner tyres up front. 215/35/18 :)

Cheers for the great comments  :laugh:

She's back in total vag garage in lu7 getting both outside cv boots done. Unfortunately running the car as low as it is the angle of the drive shafts just kill the boots :( its a small sacrifice for good looks.

My next oem+ mod is going to be the front brakes. Got my eye on some s3 345mm brakes so watch this space!!!

Hi Matt,

I have recently fitted fk's to the rear to get a bigger drop, and the front I have Ta tecknics. I brought these due to the 3 year Warrenty that they come with.

Can't fault them really.

No arch work done, I haven't even bothered doing the front arch lining mod.

In between the showers I managed to get my boost gauge fitted. I brought the APR boost tap which was really easy to install and looks the cleanest option in my opinion.
