Indeed they are!
Think I may need a rear anti-roll bar though, someone said it can turn in too fast and the back gets twitchy??

Couldn't you program an Audi 3 button remote in and wire up the solenoid to work with the button?

Could be hard work but it would be well trick!

Oh yeah, i'll take a pic of that sometime, maybe when it's being sprayed.

It's a button just behind my handbrake.

Not yet mate, it's covered in filler primer at the moment, making sure it sets properly before painting.
Should be done in next week or two along with my new FR rear bumper! :D
Here's a quck photoshop though... smoothed rear bumpers aswell.
(Excuse the old pic, no decent up to date ones)
