Do those exist? I only see 25 front / 40 rear and 35 front / 55 rear for the 6R GTI on the H&R website?

Anyway it's looking good!

Thanks for the comments.

The springs are the lower version of the two available, because the gti i factory lowered it doesn't count as much of a drop.

As for the lamin x, just go on there website and click shop, you'll need 2x 12x4 sheets.

Works out about £17 delivered.

And for god sake don't buy the cheap £3.99 stuff off eBay

I'm sorry to inform you, but with those 35mm springs on the front with a 10mm spacer you are going to be rubbing big time on cornering.
