This is a lot of work so the car doesn't bottom out.

In the centre of our driveway is a grass column, but the car keeps catching on it and making me pull this face  :angry:. Below is how far I've got:



This itself took a few hours, below is how it looked before and how much I've got left to do, this is also why I can't lower my mk4.

Quit complaining, looks like a nice area.

Surely a standard Mk4 wouldn't bottom out on that?

In no way shape or form am I complaining, just showcasing what I've been up to.

It does bottom out in places becuase the ridge is so high.

Or just don't lower your car so far!

Low is in the gutter, rats live in the gutter.  Don't be a rat.  :grin:

The car isn't lowered at all, was a nice bit of excercise on a Saturday morning
