I lowered the front of my car .25". Still need to lower the rear a bit (wheels have to come off).

Today I bought .....
All 4 wheel bearing kits new alternator, new air cond compressor and starter Forge coolant lines all new vacuum lines and fittings new expansion tank fancy Porsche caps for oil, expansion tank and windshield washer tank new OEM radiator new OEM fans new battery cover and of course the forged motor / big turbo build continues I am getting ridiculous I think on parts replacement making almost everything new. I am sure I will be buying more. Maybe should not have declared this a "no budget" project.

Ordered Wheels
I ordered Konig Oversteer 18x8 45 mms offset wheels. I just got the car 10 days ago. Recently upgraded to Powerbass. 12" subs and Amp Sunday. Gonna lower it next. I'm going with a tried and true suspension setup. Konica and Nuespeed springs.

The plastic cover on those turns to shit quite quickly. I'd suggest removing the plastic cover and clear coating the carbon fiber and then you will not have that issue (it's what I ended up doing) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Went with my cousin to pick up his new MK7 GTI. I want one so badly, but my company just bought me a brand new 2018 Ford Escape, every bit of which including gas and insurance is covered by them, so I couldn't justify getting the MK7.
