Gaz8512,  Where did you get your coilovers and how much were they?  Are they adjustable ride-height?  I've had -40mm eibach springs on my car for about a year now, but the back end is still not quite low enough for me (only looks right with fully loaded boot)!

looks good mate, my mk4 needs an update as bored with it now and thats been on a 40mm drop for 2 years now, needs new shocks too so maybe the coilover kit is a good buy, just wondering have you had any issues with the drive shafts rubbing on the antiroll bar since youve lowered it?? i know if you go 50mm ish or more they catch.... so either a different link bar is needed to tilt it back or a new uprated different shaped roll bar...

Dubfather, I was thinking the exact same thing as you, mate!  Also fancy a nice exhaust. 

I really want an S3, but can't afford it yet, so might tweak the old Mk4 a bit!
