im thinking of going the neuspeed/bilstein route, but im kinda on a budget
it handles great now, but i also believe, if it aint broke, dont fix it.

I hated it when people would always say, just lower and it'll be sweet. I would always say back, "If you want it lowered, go ahead, pay for it and do it, and you better have a guarantee on your work." I understand having the car lowered makes it look more sporty and sleek, but some people like me, live in a town that the dips are deep. I've cracked my front bumper 3 times onmy Accord.marcinek said:

Then lowering isnt for you lol. The roads around here are pretty good. Having a lowered car also means you have to drive differently...TeknoGroover said:

Tekno, im not trying to say you fit this profile, but all the lowered hondas in my area go way to low w/ cut springs... giving their shox a workout trying to stop the car from bouncing.
I think if you were to use euro springs you should be alright.
as the only real reason we have higher gtis in the states is to save us from the damn mothers in the suvs :thumbdown:
true the car looks better when it is lowered, but i get suspension to handle better:thumbup:
Sorry to stray from the post, your car is nice, post it in the Golf Garage.
that pic from above is sick!
I am sad to see they drilled into your front bumper
