Looks great! How is the ride quality, particularly over potholes and speed bumps, compared with the old springs?ThatRubberDuck wrote: Tue May 21, 2019 5:25 pm Had my polo lowered with the Eibach OEM lowering kit 25-30mm, feels much better to drive now IMO compared to stock springs

Re: Drivers door seal worn through
Interesting! We have exactly the same problem with our 2011 Polo! I thought it was something to do with the previous owner as we bought this otherwise immaculate car, with only 21k miles. I’ve seen this rarely on other cars and only with 100k miles or more.
