Lowering the GTI

So I decided I am going to lower it after all... finally broke down.

I went with a used set of Spax 70/60mm lowering springs. (Equivelent to 2.75" in the front and 2.36" in the rear.) The car sits with a reverse rake as-is, that is why there is a 10mm difference front to rear.

Measuring the current wheel wells, this should close up any gap between the fender lip and the tires quite nicely. :)

my photochop of what I think it will look like when it's done.

and what it looks like today:
