Hopcraft Posted September 24, 2006 Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 loving the seats, think they look well sporty. i know its a sport, but you get what i mean. make sure you slam it more than you wanted... can never go to low, can always stay too high.

Babs Posted September 30, 2006 Report Share Posted September 30, 2006 get them on!took me an hour to fit coilies on my Vento, and with the Lupo, there's less car to walk around! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyA Posted September 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2006 Is there anything I should be aware of when fitting them? I'll be getting the camber and tracking sorted after they've been fitted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted September 30, 2006 Report Share Posted September 30, 2006 Just make sure you use spring compressors on the front springs or you might have a slight headache after they've belted your head off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattyA Posted October 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 Fitted the mk5 aero wiper today, and having the H&R Cup Kit fitted at local VW specialist tomorrow (£160 + vat), which i thought was okay!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyp Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 you losing the rubbing strips as well??... debaged grill would finish it off a treat.. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />gonna look sweet with everything on.

MattyA Posted October 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Andyp - Thought about removing the bump strips, but im undecided as I feel it breaks the door up a bit, also fancy some standard unsprayed mirror covers (just as an option), would also consider debadging, just the thought of all that hard graft stopping me!!Is it possible to get honey cone grills for the Lupo, obviously the GTI has them, but is there an aftermarket company selling them?H&R Kit now fitted, and I am amazed at how good it looks, the drop is perfect!

paulbin Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 should be a really good contrast between the red and the black, it should look cool, the best tyres u can get are 195/45/14 but there quite expensive, i wouldnt stick balloon tyres on as it will just ruin the look of the wheels. Other people might recomend 165? tyres for a little stretch style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyA Posted October 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 the best tyres u can get are 195/45/14 but there quite expensive.Paul - My car is currently on 195/55/14's if i put some 165 or 195/45/14's will it knock out my speedo? and if so by how much?Thanks Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyp Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 put some 195 45's on mate imo... still look good... debaging wouldnt take you long to do on the back... theres a thread somewhere about.will look sweet as with the rims as the drop you have looks spot on.
