    Yeah. There is a HUGE VW factory down in South Africa, that is one of the reasons for all the models and why they get them earlier than Aus. The Amarok has been there for about 6 months before Aus got theirs.

    Hi CrossPolo SA

    car looks real good !! Especially with the lowering kit...

    Im in Cape Town and my wife has a Black CrossPolo....

    Im URGENTLY looking for a lowering kit, can you supply me with the part number and supplier of the Eibach kit ?

    I see you say its a 9n3 kit, does that mean its a kit from the previous generation polo? 1.8 20V Turbo Polo GTI shape?

    thx!!

    +JONGA!

    Thanx guys

    @christo, yes the springs in my 6R is from the 9n3. I got these from a friend who bought it directly from VW he paid R1800, he ended up not fitting it and sold it to me for R500

    Unfortunately I don't have a part number but the best would be to pop in at a VW and ask for the 9n3 eibach (blue) lowering kit. They don't go very low but the ride is super comfy. Maybe by now they will have a lowering kit available for the 6R, just make sure.

    cool, i contacted Eibach in Port Elizabeth...

    they contacted Germany....

    confirmed = No kit for crosspolo....

    I asked about fitment on 9n3 kit and they had no clue if it would work...

    I will post pics once I come right !

    Will see which fitment centres have a set on hand in cape town and get the fitment done...

    Im sure an H&R kit will be a bit lower, but the Eibach's will drive better...

    Plz mail me a few more pics if possible?

    thx!

    Forget asking VW if it will fit, they also told me it won't fit, I then fitted it elsewhere, drove back to the dealer and ask the mech what does he say now? He seemed surprised....

    Send me your email addy then I will mail you the pics.

    H&R - Lower
    Eibach - Comfort
    I had both kits on my 9n3 and thats just my experience with the two.
