ok, before big red says i need to lower it more. the rear perches are still installed. the wheels were only put on the car for a test fit and a couple of shots. before i can go any lower i need to do a few things to the car but for now it is, what it is.

all in all, nothing too special. clean and simple IMO.
the headlights are key. have you ever looked at an OEM mk4 jetta light?? GARBAGE, cant see anything. my lights were so hazed, plus they use a 9007 bulb, high/low are the same bulb. JUNK!
wheels are un touched. they have a few nicks in them. got them from a guy off CorvetteForum in PA. off his low mile 1993 coupe.
yeah i drive about 500 miles a week. its tough to go super low. i was at danas this weekend and was scraping the belly pan the entire length of his road. the rear im going to try to get another 1/2inch out of it. and thats about the extent of my lowering.
