I know someone with some Eibach 30mm lowering springs that might just fit that ;)

On the subject of being low:

Last month's VW Scene featured a black Bora, practically laying on the ground, using shortened H&R coilovers. Apparently, the owner was a father too - he claimed that his newborn loved driving along in the car as it sent him off to sleep right away...

Now, regardless if this is true or not - I'm saving that copy for when the time comes to convince the lady that modifying cars and having a family don't bite...

:D

Mate, someone's 30mm Eibach springs retain comfort but also sharpen up the wallowy handling as well :)
