hey buddy, cars looking awesome. I love the alloys. i didnt think you could get those in a 4 stud. Did you have to convert your hubs or did u find a 4 stud set?

I don't think those are the right ones buddy. I believe the 6N has a different setup. Im sure someone would be able to offer you some more concrete advice, but i'm almost 100% certain the 6n ones don't fit.

6n use different top mounts at the front.

There is a proper H&R for the facelift diesel, though the GTI one should be ok

Is there any difference in the gti vs non-gti shocks. As in if I got some gti shocks would that work better with just springs also be lower than standard? Or are the standard shocks fine with a 35mm drop? Cheers

GTI shocks are gas filled as opposed to fluid filled for better handling

Standard shocks are fine with a 35mm drop
