Just gotta keep trying! Its cheap stuff so easily do it again and peels off fine.

Yeah i think you're only worthy of Nurburg sticker if you actually go!

Ah nice one, i've got a metal Ibiza tax disc for mine. Somewhere in the thread i think.

Nice one, I wouldn't like to go there in my own car lol.

My boyfriends brother goes quite a bit in his BMW M3. Gets a real good time too.

Yeah vinyl definitely is a skill to do right lol.
Never managed to get the front of my car perfect after 3 goes haha.
Already worth a try tho.

I wanna keep my boot lid badge chrome, quite like it :) but may be persuaded on how yours looks :p

Oh haha, sorry, Rob :)

Is that the Apex? A guy had them on his MK5 and it sat perfect. Not too expensive either.

By the way, welcome to the forum :)

Um no I think they were the Eibach pro and on the internet it says they drop it about 25mm which is probably just about right. Are the Apex's just as good? You can't remember who it was on here by any chance do you so I could have a look please? :)

Hi mate, got mine on the H&R's, 25mm front and 40mm rear, sits really nice, handles better, IMO 25mm is not enough at the back,

You gonna get any spacers for yours robloake?

Hiya, have thought about spacers, there are some pics of a blue Cupra on here somewhere with 16mm spacers on the back, its lowered and the wheels fill the arches out really well. If i do mine i will go spacers all round so it doesn't upset the offset, as far as can tell the track on the front is wider than on the rear.
I'm saving up for a Milltek pipe at the mo, so thats next on the list !!
