i really dont understand anything about adjusting the ARB's lol. what would the difference be about it being harder or softer? and patch how comes your tyres are looking ripped?

the harder the setting the flatter you corner i.e it will help to minimise (not eliminate) body roll

if you're not 'slamming it' then i would just upgrade the rear anti roll bar as that makes the biggest difference to the handling; basically it helps reduce the understeer

why, most cars from factory dont have them







thats how its sitting at the moment but should settle a little bit, and a few pics of exhaust





and my new stickers.........down low golf



and my personal fave......... pedo bear






plans are to get a 4motion front splitter and do it gloss black(if you can tell in pics grills and mirror bases and rear valance are already done)

get yellow film and 3000k hids for headlamps, smoked repeaters, half smoked rears,  light tints and some anni skirts and a spoiler sprayed to match car, thats preety much it looks wise :D

sorry the car is dirty in pics and they are poor, will get better 1s this weekend
