Dropped 60mm all the way round and got 35% tints on all windows
Before:
After!:
ignore my finger
There's No rubbing at all which i'm happy about, i havn't been over any speedbumps yet, but hopefully it won't hit. I also never noticed how many bumps there are in the road!! you can feel every little bump in the road!! Really happy with tints aswell definatley the right shade. Next it's probably a Gti spoiler and then i'm going to get some ICE

Please tell me you used a suspension kit and not coilovers? 'Cause I'm looking for a 60mm suspension kit and want to know what people think of the one they've got before I decided on which kit to get.
Yup! its a 60/40-60mm suspension Kit (springs&shocks), i would highly recommend it, it's a unbranded (FK) german kit, comes with 2 years of warranty and gives you the flexibility of choosing how low you want your car at the back. The best thing is the price it cost me £160 (inc postage and packaging) from germany.

got quoted £100, but ended up being £120
What's the ride like? (handling and comfort)
The handling is much better, you can corner so much faster

, but the downside is that the ride is a little bumpy

I agree

I might get them refurbished and powder coated dark grey, any ideas how much that would cost?
