Wanna get flat centers aswel but still in 2 minds.
Yeh get the gloss done man i think its a nice touch.
U got joms havent u, what are they like comfort wise?
the Joms are great for budgets, havent had a problem since installing them, very comfortable compared to raceland/hot tuning ones my friends have in their cars. because mine is so low, it is a bit bouncy, but you get used to it lol, its quite funny seeing your passenger in the corner of your eye bouncing all over the place

HAHA, the lower you go the more it bounces, but i honestly find them quite comfortable, it doesnt feel like your crashing into a bump, like it does on stiffer cheaper coilies. but you would obviously get a more comfortable ride investing in some coilies with adjustable damping

I always found mine was better when it sat lower and bounced more when the coilovers were sitting high...ish.
Adjustable damping is a great thing to have, my GTI felt much better after tweaking the damping however I normally ran mine on the stiffest setting because it reduced body roll and felt planted on the road. It was very harsh though but you get used to it once your teeth have fallen out 8)

DuB-kNight...UPDATES...31/8/11 bootlid

Post by benmkiv »

Don't see why it would fail as long as you hve it on a solenoid. All doors have to be opening that's all they say as long as you have it on a popper should be fine?? Correct Me if I'm wrong, at the end of the day it all depends where it's mot'd ;) everything is at testers discretion essentially.

haha i know that feeling lol didnt have electrics, aircon and most annoyingly no cup holder

its only a 1.4 match this time around but will do for now, besides with these its about how they look and once touched nicely they can look great wouldnt you agree.
I HAD to comment on this ha....... I totally agree about the whole cup holder issue. I had a 1.0E and moaned on for ages that it didn't have one, now I have one I never use it!

on the traffic light and i kept feeling the car wanting to go forward, at one point i thought it was me doing it so excused it but then there was a bigger nudge so i just had to step out and ask him what he was on he replied "HUH" didnt even realise he was bumping me.
tbh i think he on something, didnt wanna creat a scene as the little one was with me . after a chat he said he was sorry, signed accepting it was he's fault and off i went.
Ooooops! Is he going to pay for the repair?
