Thanks mate.
I've built up a nice collection of tools now. But i suspect my next DIY will need another specific tool that i don't have.

Was planning on b12s or FSD and eibach springs but my drive is a pita :sad1:
This also affects my wheel choises as everything i like will look sh*t at this height really :sad:
How about some ARB's? Recommendations for an awesome daily drive? Mainly used on the school run!

Koni FSD and Eibach Pro-Kits won't lower your ride much. Unless you're just entering on your drive at limit, you'll be fine. It's quite a comfortable ride setup if you choose the normal Koni FSD and not the ones for the GTI. Don't think about fitting an Ed. 30 front spoiler, it limits you a lot from entering steep garages and drives.
From what I hear from other GTI owners I'd recommend just Powerflex (purple) ARB bushes. Other aftermarket ARB already have PU bushes so you'll have even more NVH with them.
Cheers
