Fitted my H and R lowering springs today.

Rears - Peace of piss 30 mins

Fronts well what an arse lots of swearing and pulling shoving and twisting and sore knees later its on eventually.

So my opinion, great fitment easy to fit once shock is off. handling not sure yet as was pissing down with rain on way home and got cheap ass front tyres on. will update as soon as.

Sitting a little high but they will settle and drop by next week. got M.O.T due on wednesday and two new front tyres going on any Recommendations?

Oh so much fed up of being stuck inside.

Now I can get on with messing with the wheels if I want. Sorting out the chrome grille surround, and installing the new gear knob (WHEN IT BLOODY GETS HERE!!!)

Shiny things, eh?

Don't forget the pics when you get to tinkering! Glad you're back on your feet!

It'll be the armrest next, but don't have enough money at the moment. With being off work, I don't have all the extra money from expenses

It didn't help that I had to buy a new VCDS lead. I had a knock off one from ebay and it worked relatively okay but couldn't create logs or anything like that. So bought a genuine one.

I'm guessing that's for VAG COM? To connect the das auto?

I think I need to invest in VAG COM soon...
