cheers, I'd guess a good couple of inches front and back, ~50mm? The front wasn't that high with the TDI lump in the first place
edit - the rears have about 25mm gap between arch and top of tyre. front about 20mm

no, it's not perfect but there's a couple of different shades on the car rear 1/4 anyway, and the lines between the kit / strips mean that it's very difficult to tell.

LOL
1) Bought a Votex kit in early Feb
2) Bought the car in early March
3) Bought TT comps the same day I picked the car up
4) Bought coilovers & bump strips in late march
5) Spend a whole weekend in April prepping bump strips
6) German plates velcro-ed on in April

7) Car went in to paint and fit kit and bump strips 19th April
8.) Car back 20th April, fitted wheels that evening
9) Fitted Coilovers all day on 21st April!
No, I did not think about the car the whole time, mainly because it was standard up until the 19th April! I thought mainly about bloody coilovers, which I'm now trying to sell because I ended up with 2 pairs lol!
