Anyone on bags?

[Lorinser]

Just wondering if anyone here is on bags or knows of anyone in Australia that has bagged a MKIV?

I'm looking at getting my Bora on air suspension but am worried that off the shelf kits won't get the car sitting as low as I would like.

I've got quotes from a couple of shops for 4.5k including fitting, which isn't too bad. But there's no point really if the setup won't go lower than my current one which consists of KW V2 all the way down at the front and custom rear springs.

If you have got pics of an Aussie bagged Bora/Golf - please post pics! And if possible, some details of the bag setup would be real handy too

Look at Vortex, that is your friend, notch out the subframe, cut the rear spring perches, there are heaps of ways that you can get your ride even with Coilovers to go lower!

Bit over coilovers. The car is super low at the moment, lowest MKIV on this forum easily. I want to get bags so i can pull into any service station or car park without hassles.

Yeah I've done research on Vortex but a lot of the cars there on bags aren't as low as what mine is right now. A few of them manage to get the front really low but still haven't seen anyone tucking rim in the rear - don't know if they do that by choice because they don't like the look of 'reverse rake'...

Would be awesome to find a complete kit somewhere that gets the car sitting on the ground, or a shop in Aus that has experience in getting this done. Looks like I'm going to have to source a few of my own parts and get a shop to get the rest and fit it all... hassles lol

Should be worth it though

I doubt many shops would have experience baggin golfs. That said, anything is possible with the right gear/set up, and plenty of time and money and most of all experience!

Take your time picking a shop, is my advice.

Pics of your car would help, they would hmmm!

Lol yep seen that one DUB 20V - it's probably about 10mm lower than my car at front and back is around the same. I'm running same wheel size as him. Looks good... but lower would be nice
