Iraqivet's build thread...

ok so coils are ordered.

after trying to make something custom and just not being able to make it work right i have given up.

i put in a order for a set of coils today. this will get me lower than i was last year.

i have to wait like 5+ weeks do to this is not a set up they make you can just order. different shock cartridges and springs to make this work right.
but if all go's good and as planned i will have only 1inch under the front bumper and the car will be flush to the ground,

Did you go through the company I sent you or are you just going with Pedders/BC?

The chevy roof rack leaving any marks on the paint? Is it personal choice to have the cross bars that close together? I would want my rear one back further to spread the weight of the Kayak when I haul it.

LOVE the car though, was Audi driven for years and Rotiform,slammed,roof rack...all screem that scene to me, and i love every second of it lol

not really just have to make shore you dont over tighten it. and no that is where the rack go's there are spots already pressed in the body a little where the rack is to go and they also give you a sheet that say it is to only be so far in front and behind the B piller.

and unless you kayak weighs like 200lbs i dont think you will have a problem

and yes i was in the vw scene for a few year i had a mk5 gti and a mk2 jetta coupe

Made me "lol," you don't hear that a whole lot.
I hate "slammed" cars, but yours looks pretty tasteful in your picture couple with the roof rack, nice work

When you removed the roof rack, did you have the paint damage that some users are reporting?
