Red 1.6tdi, low and getting there

[greypolo9n3]

Going up is not an option for me, I really want it lower if I'm honest. Think it might just be a case of bite the bullet and take them out...........or drive slower......

On the off chance, does anyone know of a 6r gti grill for sale, or how much they are from the stealers?

Ebay ones are like 70-90

I saw a african site forgotten what its called but a gti grill non genuine was 35quid

I think at the dealers its about 120 i cant remember

This is coming along nice pal!

Your KW's.....what do you think to them? Are they the variant 1's that are about £800 if you dont mind me asking?

Thanks very much

The kw's are great, the ride is definitely stiff and I do drive slow over bad bits of road and speed humps, but I use my car everyday at work, and it's fine for normal use, it's very good on a B road now, handling is great. And that bearing in mind I haven't got helpers, adjusters or bumps stops in, I can't really complain. I paid second hand money for mine. But new I think you can get for around £600.

Thanks for that mate!

Been thinking about either these or Bilstein's.....just nice to hear some first hand experience.

The sites you referring to is either Maxmotorpsort OR Autostyle.... they cost bout R700 which works out to 35 - 40 pound give or take.

They not that cheap - even their in country courier costs from Jhb to Cape Town is like R500 for a R700 item....WTF???

I shudder to think what they would charge to ship to your side of the pond.

I've been looking for somewhere reputable to refurbish my Boavista's for some time now to no avail unfortunately. Where abouts are you located? If you do get it done let me know where and the cost associated with it!

Cheers,
