sounds good but im working till 5 tomorrow. pics will be fine tho. at least it'll give me an idea of the craftmanship. if the pics look good then surely it'd look better in the flesh so to speak.

ill take pics for ya so you can see. it use to rub and its still rubbing. the reason for this is

1. with gti bumper there is a metal hook kind of thing with a screw on it wich attaches the bumper and arch wich needs bending.

2. im really low

3.the rims have high offset wich does catch the arch when turning harsh or driving over a bump fast.

will sort it out though :)
