Luke's Low 6n2 Gti

Featured Replies

Hey everyone, finally managed to get signed up on here after trying several times over the last month or so?!

Bought myself a 6n2 gti as i fancied another dub and cant afford to insure my clio williams due to my age (it's in storage now)

Heres about the only decent picture i have at the moment, which was pretty much when i first got my coilies on

I have since got some team heko deflectors, lamin-x'd my fogs, got the red gti grill trim, got the correct oe gti badges, paint splattered a few small interior bits and engine bits, re-located the front plate to the lower grill and fitted a bmc cda (I have another one which is for sale, pm me!) Will get some pictures of these up asap!!

Also started refurbing my wheels, here's the first completed one.

Colour might not be to everyones taste but I'm pretty pleased with it :)

Will try and keep this updated and get some progress pics on 8-)

The same colour i was going for my wheels. Did you do them yourself?

No real updates just some new centre caps (jaguar ones) on my wheels and another poor quality mobile phone picture of the current ride height :)

Aw right cool, keep up the good work dude. :)

Why would u wanna have you are ride height so low that u get stuck on a flat surface , I have my GTi lowered to a pointand still looks good and can have passengers in the back

What tyres size is that on the rear , don't look like 195/45x15

I've actually lowered it more since the picture of it stuck and i can still drive with people in the back just not over much :)

Will be raising it when I have some new wheels as there is no way they will tuck like the current ones

165/50/15, personal preference I like a subtle stretch

Looks decent on the rear

too true, seems silly to have a ride that can only take one person!!

What coilies you sitting on? Whats the ride like that low?

i think they are fk's, i bought them second hand for £60 so cant really complain, the ride is horrendous but i'll be raising it slightly when i get my new wheels
