    thanks for the compliments guys ordering a swaybar today, so I should be able to wind the coils down a bit. I'll have to take the perches out of the rear since they're already all the way down. I really want to get onto some spacers but I'm a bit hesitant to spend the cash at the moment, got a few things coming up so I might wait a bit

    just thought I'd throw these pics that other people took at SEDF in here so they're all in the same thread




    Should have my new swaybar soon. Thinking about making a bonnet-bra too

    car looks great!
    i don't think it needs spacers... those wheels are half inch wider than genuine aristos which helps!
    but if you did go spacers, what do you reckon, just 10 on the back, nothing on the front?

    Anth, your car is looking awesome mate, big thumbs up.

    I think to finish of the rear, add some gti taillights IMO.

    cheers guys.

    for spacers I was thinking 8-10mm on the front and about 15mm or so on the rear, not quite sure. I'd like it to be nice and flush, but since I'm running 225's there's no real stretch on the tyres so it might rub. The rear guards appear to be rolled from factory, so I might have to roll the fronts.

    I'd love a set of GTI tail lights but then again I don't want it to look like a mockup GTI, so I was thinking of getting some red transparent film and doing all-red tails, using this stuff, http://www.lamin-x.com/
