if we all liked the same things this place would be a hell of a lot duller for a start! I personally prefer the very lowered look. Get it in the dirt where it belongs!

thats the best mk3 ive seen..ever! its just clean and subtle.. :cool:

i actually REALLY miss how low my car was before , im not sure how low it was but it was on the arches, but i do prefere how soft the ride is now, speed bumps i can hardly feel compared to driving over them at 2 miles an hour to avoid the bang. its bliss and its still a little low

I went out in the G60 today with the Mrs, my mate and his Mrs, and it was scrubbing both fronts, and the chin spoiler was making some nasty noises over curbs, in cars parks etc... who cares tho when your car looks good!

16v chin spoilers are ideal for lowered cars, they just bend backwards on speed humps and then spring back into position after :laugh:

I'll go and stand outside with the un-modifiers then!  :tongue:

Mine's dropped 40mm and that's plenty! It's completely bog standard everywhere else. I'm a big fan of retro cars looking retro. Not planning on doing anything to it other than return it to it's former 90's stylee! Got a red trimmed GTI grill with twin Hellas to fit to replace the boring single lamp de-badged one. And in time I'll get the BBS 5spokes and the odd rust patch cleaned up.

Standard is the new modded!  :smug:

No mate, I was still at work, the G0 was safely tucked away in my garage.
