    looks good man, stickers are a bit exessive, but looks good! either the front needs to raise a bit or the rear a tad lower, looks slightly uneven from what i can see.

    all raising and lowering or changes to suspension change the alignment and all the rest, but seriously if youre raising and lowering by a tiny little bit, you wont notice it, and imo a waste of time and money getting another alignment, set it at a height youre happy with and get an alignment (if you havent since installing coils) and enjoy

    Thanks mate. I do love my stickers, so I quiet like the amount I have on there. I see how they could be seen as 'excessive' but I like it.
    I raised the front just under a 1, not buy but got rid of some tyre to guard catching, but I also like the 'rake' look.
    Any feedback is gray though, thanks!

    Set it so you can't get a wheel alignment then you have it at the correct height.

    Okay so, I purchased another bonnet the other week and was going to do the whole 'Rust it up and go rat etc' look, but a couple of my friends and I decided to try something else. So this is what i've got on at the moment.

    Painted the VW Symbol them masked it off, filled the rest of the bonnet with Chalkboard paint. Heard mixed reviews on it and a lot of people don't like it, but it's different and i like it.. for now. We aren't professional painters, if you didn't notice.

    Anyway, this is what i'm driving with




    Also, does anyone know what bulbs the Mk3 Parkers take? Thanks

    Been a bit since I updated this. Got tyres for my wheels and got them on etc. my rear left tyre is all chopped up from scrubbing bad.

    I tried to roll the guard but it isn't a lip, so I can't just fold the lip up, the rear left guard 'lip' has this rubber stuff that runs right along it. I can't rip it off either.

    So until I can afford to pay someone to do it, I tightened the spring rate about 20%, but my cx coils don't get very low. my CX's are maxxed out in the rear, but I'm going to raise the front a tiny bit so it should look alright. But that's how it sits atm.

    Bonnet no longer chalkboard?

    Regarding rear guards. Gotta get that sticky stuff out. Use a wire wheel or whatever you can to scrape it out then you can roll guards.

    Screwdriver and heat the rubber goo comes out easy.

    I have recently got cx's and they are far from low coil overs. Don't know what the go is.
