Lowered polos mkvii look terrible

You can lower too far though - look at the wishbone angles on lowered 9n's, they soon start making the suspension geometry very poor and therefore handling worse than standard height. . . .

we're only talkin lowering 30-40mm, it's not like the 6N/6N2 -100mm jobs

9N3's just need lowered enough to get rid of the giant gap in the arch, then they are sorted

LMAO^^ WTF @ first pic!?!?

Even at standard height, they look a bit funny...

Looks so much better with even just the sport suspension...here's a pic of mine with the stock suspension.

Which do you prefer, mine or the blue?

How exactly does air ride work in terms of settings? Du have 2 (or more) pre-set heights which you can quickly adjust to? Or is it endless adjustment, like an office chair?

... spot on

Jeff got it in one! This is just your opinion. I could go on every forum and tell everyone they should lower their car because i think it looks good - but i don't as it's their car and they can do what they want!

Your opinion has been noted but please shut up now.

PS. Your car looks flipping awesome in this pic Jeff
