Great work matey!

Did you get LED indicator bulbs aswell?

 

[Ad Lav]

Nope, but I forgot about the LED sidelights and uprated bulbs, FR rear lights etc!

God, I could write a list soooo long...

Awesome looking car mate, love the fact all parts are from the VAG stable

How does the ride quality of the coilovers compare to the eibach springs you had before? My car has an eibach pro kit and it's just too firm for the rough roads up here. Also it sits high at the back as did yours looking at that 2nd pic.

Very nice, loving the alloys, they look spot on.

Definately my favourite mk4.. absolutely love that rear end and those wheels

top work mate

Cheers oedo!

The eibach springs were good but buggared my shocks within 8k miles!

They were firm, but with better shocks they could have been better, that's why I went for coilovers - the need to go low was only available to me with coilovers.

The ride is firm with the coilovers compared to the springs but it takes the bumps better and handles sooooooo much better!!

Thanks mate, wheels are one of my favourite things about the car!

Cheers buddy, I know you love the ass end of my car, wish I had 8.5'' wide VRS wheels on the back, nobody will widen them though!!

Its just a shame what has happened to BBS.

Hope someone takes over and they can start making them again. Huge demand.

I like the both of them Adam. Cant make my mind up. Would need to see the two sets on the car i think.
