i lowered it 2 inches. ill try to get a pick of it when it was stock. if the oil pan wasnt the lowest thing on the car it would be lower. and colton you can have a mug, my dad is trying to get rid of them anyhow, ill save ya one ;)

Looks a lot lower from farther away. I wish my brakes looked as cool as yours, but behind my 18's they look teeny as hell.

It's not jacked up in the front. The front wheel well is just bigger then the rear. So it makes it look like the rear is lower. Just like on a 2g with eibach pro-kit springs. They lower both the front and rear the same distance. They should lower the front more then the rear to get the proper look.

They look a million times better in person.

all this about the car being jacked up in the front and the awnser is yes it is higher in the front than the rear. this is due to buying a 40mm drop all the way around the rear of vws is lower from the start so when you lower it the same as the front it will look like erics car.

as for coltons comment about puting spring in the wrong places thats next to impossible since the front springs are much larger than the rears.

erics car could have gone with a 60/40(f/r) drop no problem and a 60/80 would have been nice and slamed

sounds like a really good reason to swap to 15" brakes to me....

I don't have money. Not having a job sucks. If I did have the money I would do the TCE 12.2" kit with NDL Wildwood calipers. :drool:
