Well blue, you know my car better than most as you did some work on it. Theres little comfortable about it anyway :P

But yeah, its not too bad acctually, a little hard on the rear but the handling is excilent, Not had a chance to properly test it yet as i want to get the tracking done and two fresh front tires before i really put it through its paces :)

lol, looking good man.

One thing I'm going to do when I get my 17"'s is put new suspension on them as I dont think my 40mm drop will be enough so looking for 60mm all round.

Whatcha think guys?

good work, can never be to low. you might want to trim the bottom of your arches aswell to try and stop them getting ripped off on stuff. then get caught on stuff and snap at the mount. :cry:

my splitters a little bit smaller than the GTI ones but i have been taking speed bumps VERY slowly  :grin:

Hopfully getting the plastic inner arch removed and the arches rolled (or cut in the case of the plastic over arches) so it doesnt rub as much. Sadly after the photos on tuesday im going to be raising the rear a little bit, i think the way the wheels sit right up in the arches make it look a little bit chav-tastic  :undecided:
