Today I had a merc tailgating me all the way up to the slip road, as soon as I hit the slip road I dropped a cog and left him choking on my dust, in 2 seconds he was a mere spec in my mirror.  He didn't even have the decency to race me, what a loser.  Should have waited for him to pull up along side.

I love this car  :laugh:

Well here it is! I drove the car about 30 miles home afterwards on a mixture of roads and I cannot tell any difference at all in ride comfort. If I didn't know they were installed, I'd never know it wasn't standard. I don't have the ACC suspension option either.
I think the drop is just right. Not too low, I think it still looks "OEM"....
 
The only annoying thing... I have a clunk coming from somewhere, there must be a loose bolt somewhere so I'll have to go back again to get it checked.

Here's a few pics

Thanks for the pics and the review Joe, that looks spot on to me  :smiley:

Definitely going to give this consideration. Was it a local garage that fitted them for you?

A local VW dealership did it!
