Post by: golfpro on 15 January 2006, 16:32

clearly! looks nice that. Not too sure about the red door cards but fair play if uv done them yourself. what wheels u thinkin of gettin? some nice deep bbs numbers or some borbet a's maybe?

Title: Re: freshly lowered
Post by: mk2_singh on 15 January 2006, 16:42

i also like the outside. and i like the silver black dash. Not to keen on the red door cards. Silver and Black door cards YES!!

what drop is that? springs? i like it just the right amount i also want to drop it that much.

where can i get that front lip spoiler? eurocar parts or scrappy? what is it called.

Title: Re: freshly lowered
Post by: monkeyalan on 15 January 2006, 16:56

it's just a standard mk2 16v one i think.

Title: Re: freshly lowered
Post by: baz_the_man62 on 15 January 2006, 16:59

well, i got the seats from a polo coupe s, i cant afford a retrim so retrimmed in red to match..

next im gonna get the windows tinted so the red and blue dont clash and will change the rims for something black/gun metal possible dished.

i dropped it on matched shocks and springs 60mm, gmax kit

the front lip spoiler is from a 16v gti, i got it from a scrappy for about a tenner.. didnt get a new one as it scrapes sometimes.

Title: Re: freshly lowered
Post by: mk2_singh on 15 January 2006, 17:14

thats an expensive kit! i dnt have them kind of funds right know. so will maybe get the lowering springs from euro car parts they are in my range. 40mm drop.

can i get 60mm drop springs anywhere without the shocks.

thanks for the info will try and locate a lip spoiler as well.

Title: Re: freshly lowered
Post by: baz_the_man62 on 15 January 2006, 17:46

well i got the kit on ebay brand new (old stock) for £120 including postage... definatly wouldnt recommend 60mm drop without shocks because it will ruin ur standard shocks and the springs may not be in their seats properly ( bit dangerous, mot fail)

all i did was check ebay every other day and something came up, it may be worth trying if ur on a budget like me. i saw quite a few new/nearly new kits on ebay for 1/2 the retailer prices..

try it u might get lucky.

yeah lots of good deals on ebay stock clearance wise after xmas, would never go -60mm on just springs, its worth spending that wee bit extra
