Discovering all the joys of being lowered
The joys Of Being Lowered, Either accept being low means a few scrubbages or slow driving, or raise it and drive normal, i prefer low, as that is the way All VW's should be lol, Lower the better, altho at the moment i have found the perfect handling Height with just me in the car, and enjoying it to much to go lower, Will do for show season lol,
But your gonna have to get used to driving slow over speed bumps and things, and also at angles, thats the best way to concor them lol

Do it - if you look at my sig pic and then at the new pic - it makes so much difference!Redline wrote:Woah, yeah that does look low!![]()
Also that photo is swaying me towards colour coding my splitter.
All it involves it a power sander, 2 cans of red paint and 2 of laquer from VW!
The splitter is a barsteward to get out tho - lots of nasty little plastic clips!

Wow, that looks so much better! Does look rather low aswell! Looks similar to the drop i have on mine! Just give itt ime and you'll get used to it.
Only the other day i pulled a quarter of my splitter off reversing onto a mates driveway!
Luckily it managed to be popped back in! Also noticed that after being lowered for quite some time now, that although i dont get any scrubbing, that all the constant bumps i do go over, my front passenger tyre has gradually worn a hole the size of a 10p in my black plastic lining in the arch!
Oh well!

wow that is very low at the front especially although as gti lass said, it could be just the coded splitter! does look good tho!
i haven't had too much problems with catching my splitter on things......................until i broke it and now it catches in a few places. i made an old lady jump on tuesday as i came out of a car park, it scraped right next to her!
my door catches the ground ocasionally and it even got stuck in the mud once which i think may have bent the door slightly
andi have holes in both my front arches where i'm down 70mm, don't catch it that often anymore as the tyres have worn away anything scrubbing points
