Thanks to T_Bandery yesterday my car got lowered 60mm, but the back didnt shift, the torsion bars were a complete pig! Heat and a 10lb sledge hammer didnt shift them, so we just fitted the shocks onto the back, I'm now on the lookout for a GTi rear beam... Heres a pic, it doesnt look that low, but they are 14's and i cant get a can of coke under the bumper Sam.

14s is ambitious! you won't get low enough to be able to drive it and fill the arches, you'll always have arch gaps, i only just got it low enough on 15s and small tyres and its like 100mm couldn't go any lower! Nice to see other people making their car's in-practically low though lol!

Good luck with the speed-bumps. Peps keep saying to me mine needs lowering but I have 16 speed-bumps between my house and the main road so i think I will leave it as is, Don't fancy it taking me 30 mins to drive half a mile lol.

They are real and there's no bonnet catch, so 100% functioning. Useful for tarmac road rallies and the odd track day

Standard, it makes it much quicker to get at the battery negative wire in a crash rather than wiring a cut off to the outside. Cant really do that on a daily drive
