you might find that with diesels you could be catching the plastic undertray where the sump is, especially on those half speed bumps. Mine does so i have to go over them with 1 wheel

What wheels are those mate as in your sig they look awesome.

Villain that eibach kit looks really good on the motor. Not too low giving it that OEM sporty look like a porsche or ferrari ;)

No worries Biz:p nice wheels by the way, they suit the mk4. Well fitting that suspension and buying he kit certainly wasn't cheap, so wheels will have to come second after rear cupra lights:funk:

Thanks poverty, thats what i was going for. I've allways been a fan of an OEM look and i think i'm on the way. I won't be getting any new bumpers. Future mods will be some nice alloys,spacers. With the new exaust, what u reckon oval or twin pipe??

Yeh we've got the same pro street-s. Ive just put 16's back on mine without the adjuster cups and the tyre is about 5mm from the arch.........so if yours has about a 10mm gap then i would have thought so. you can always have a look under the car and see if it has been wound all the way down. Have you got any bigger pics of the rear wheel?

Tried ringing Midland VW but was too late. By the way they did a fantastic job and probably lowered it as much as they could on the back end.

Cheers mate, no i just wanted to make sure they lowered it to the max as i requested. I've just bought a flat in Brum, hence my slow beeza progresssion:lol: chuufed to bits with the suspension mind. Used to handle like a bag of sh*t!! I just love the car now, should have been like that from the factory:p i mean it's more comfortable now with coilovers on it, big credit to the boys from eibach. I can really give it some round the twisties, like your well aware i'm sure

ok i give up trying to sell them to you :lol: Ive spoke to eibach in the past because my car wasn't sitting level and i also thought it was too high at the back. They said it has progressively wound springs for comfort, which it does but at the same time its meant for performance, hence why you cant slam it at the back. A set up thats lower at the front is supposed to be more performance/track based. I kind of believe them as mine handled loads better when i got the nose down a bit!!

Twins. Oval only on Cupras imo. :)

Here's what it'll look like (seeing as though our cars are pretty much identical. :D)
