Yeah loving that  :happy2:  :drool:

Very original wheel choice, I don't think I've seen those on a mk5 before

It reminds me of an old Mk2 a lad near me used to have back in the mid nineties in Manchester, similar colour and similar wheel design.

It always stood out with its small bumpers and rubbing strips when everyone else was going down the big bumper/big wheel route...me included unfortunately  :ashamed:

Looks cool.
What airride kit did you go for?

Like to know what went into the build as well as the pics  :happy2:

Cheers boys!
I just went for the AirLift slam XL kit with manual controls
Cheap and simple :P

Good man! :drinking:
got an annoying squeaking from the rear left though! all i can think is maybe the bush is not liking the lowness or the bag might be touching the bottom cup a little

Must just be me (or my age) but I don't like those wheels or the ride height.  The rest of the car looks really nice though.

Cheers guys! :) it's sitting alot better now I've cambered the rears more, just need to roll the front arches really so it can fully air out on the front! Ill get some good pictures when I give her a clean  :happy2: as for the corvettes there still sat in the garage, deciding what do to with them, I like them too much to sell them  :drool: but I think ill have to soon, so if anyone's interested let me know :)

agreed mate, from the side that stance looks deadly

What else have you done to the front mate??
