It may have taken me a year...

...but I've finally lowered my GTi
50mm on Phill's old Eibach springs.
Camber needs sorting, as the steering has a bit of a "gangsta lean" going on at the minute.

Looks good! How many miles have you got on your GTi Redline, and how long do you think the OEM shocks will last before needing to be replaced? I'm thinking of following the same route with my car as a stop-gap to the much more expensive coilover route

Si, it's done just under 29k.
As for how long they'll last, I couldn't really tell you. Hopefully long enough! I know Chris (Cyhliu) has had them on his car for a while, might be worth asking him.
Thanks for the comments guys.

Looking good mate, I'm looking at lowering mine 50mm on springs to keep the OEM look, I think I'll get shocks to go with them though.

Looks awesome mate.
Sitting at almost the same height as mine on Eibach 50mm's. I've only had them fitted for a few weeks, so still settling.
My camber was shockingly bad aswell.
P.s i bought Sachs Advantage shocks for mine from GSF.
