I still think it should be another inch lower at the front.

Something is already knocking, so I don't think I could really go any lower.

excellent! they look good now you've painted the springs.
would copper grease not do for covering the threads & adjusters in?

That knocking will be your ARB. Or, your driver's side driveshaft.
In both cases, lowering the car more won't break anything right away. Honest.

Hi guys,
your gti looks very nice josh! see it all the time on eccie road in sheffield. you've prob seen mine too. it's a black mk 5 with tints, toora alloys and low like yours. you might recognise the reg?? S4RA T
anyway, how are the coil overs going? have you had your arches rolled? don't think i can get mine any lower without doing mine cos it scrubs already. which area of sheff are you from? i'm live up in totley.

Hi Sara
Glad you like my Polo... I'll keep an eye out for you when I'm in town and I'll flash my lights!
The only problem I'm having is that either my ARB or Driveshaft is knocking, but apart from that, we cool!
I live out in Derbyshire, not in Sheffield, but I'm in town a lot.
