Ever consider pulling off that towbar and selling it?

Failing that, have you any info on where i could get one?

..ta :)

Haha nah, i've already had two people reverse into it.

No sorry not a clue mate, but i think it was a factory option. You could try "Stevens VW Dismantlers".

in fact according to www.willtheyfit.com the 7j et3 will only poke 7mm less than the 8j et15 wheels

7j et15 with 165/55 and 8j et15 with 175/50 it is then

Yep 7j with 165/50 fits nice and snug under the arches :)

Just a lil update on the slow progress:

Bought some G40 lights from Koolspot a while ago

Then dished out a heck of lot of money for some coilovers, poly front top mounts and poly rear bushes from Jackson Tuning

No i'm not driving around like that atm lol it's been raised up by about 50% so i think it's around like 60mm front and 50mm rear only due to speedbumps around my area.

What it handles like lol bloody awesome i'll tell you :)

I would have brought the front down to match...

Looks wicked mate, Are them coil overs brand new?!

Hes raised it anyways so everyones point is invalid :). Looks good with the wellers on!

I would have brought the front down to match...

But your on stock suspension so your input is invalid. please revert to I AM BENDER, PLEASE INSERT GURDER.

I think you need to bring the back down an inch or two (definatly 2), and then bring the front down another inch maybe 2 or 3 (definatly 3) and then it will be bob on :-)

Dont be jealous because I'm on Gmax 40mm shocks and springs polominge.

Or I AM A GURDER, PLEASE INSERT BENDER.

Not bad mate :) yourself? Yeah man definitely, you going Polo show?

Nah lol currently jobless looking for work.

Coilovers in the pics were on the lowest setting. From cat to back the exhaust system was getting pushed up lol so i had to raise it to get about and prevent my cat from smashing on the speedbumps.

Yes mate, bought them from Jackson Tuning the non strut exchange ones. But they don't come with the bearings and wheel hubs/axles so i had to buy them separately.

Well yeah, but wouldn't taking them out screw up the stiffness?

True, true, we'll see lmao might do it before the polo show.
