            oh yeah! i started one side tonight. still have to finish welding up the top and grinding stuff down. i put it down to take a look and its as low as it will go because its sitting on the tow hooks.






            definitely has less reverse rake but im still not happy...

                  Looks quite a bit better. Have you thought about your axles at all? At this height they may bind like crazy. When my GLI is up and running in the winter i will come over and help beef up the rear axle/bag mounts

                    going to have to notch the frame for axles and tie rods quite a bit.it shouldn't bind but i have some motor mount spacers in my head that im going to work on.

                              Pearl white is nice. Better than matte white, stays cleaner longer too.

                                You could always just pull and modify the fenders now to even out the mad reverse rake? It could help a bit at least
