Hi there,

Ive just become the proud owner of a year 2000 6n2 colour concept.
its a gorgeous car and i dont plan to do alot to it in the way of modifying it but i am looking into lowering it on FK highsport coilovers.

One thing ive noticed is how smooth the car is to drive,
how much effect of this will lowering it have, a considerable amount?
(im looking at a 50-60mm drop)

cheers,

Ride will be harsher, but the handle will improve.......

Pics please wanna see your colour concept motor, what colour is it....

Ill get some pics up within the next few days. ill give it a clean and take some snaps 2moro.
its black exterior, nad black/red interior.
i plan on lowering it..changing the wheels possibly..adding teh GTI front spoiler and adding the roof spoiler.

Welcome, nice one for finding a Colour Concept!

Coilovers definately transform the handling and make the car feel more firm, and obviously they enhance the looks, the ride does become harsher though but it doesn't bother me personally.

I quite like the way the car looks as it bumps along down the road

Btw, your car's a mk5 if it's 6n2 so probably best posting in that section... but not that it makes much difference

ah...i thought they were still classed as mk4s, cheers mate.

Confusing business finding out what MK the car is... I didn't have a clue myself untill I came here...

Look Forward to some pics....

Oh...& Welcome to the forum...!!!

here you go fellas, a few pics ive got from the original advert, so ignore the "sold subject to contract" coz its sat in my garage right now
ill take some better ones soon

Very nice

Interesting wheels too!

Hmmm webbed spokes... dont recall seeing them wheels before

I love black cars

nice car mate , definate lowering will look nicer but expect a harsher harder ride

cheers for teh feedback guys,
apparently the wheels are standard on most or all colour concepts.
im not sure whether to keep them or change them for a set of ASA AR1s, the black ones with polished rims

Ride will be harsher, but the handle will improve.......

Not always true, mines -90/100mm and i bet my rides better then a stock 6n2..
