Some bits arrived:

p.s. The GF doesn't know, so 'ssshhhhhhhhhh'.

Nice. Will they be fitted for Combe?

or fitted at Combe if anybody takes the tool box with them and a Jack

No chance, unless anyone can do it this weekend or next week, though i haven't bought the new bump stops, etc yet. :(

Won't have time before the track sessions but if you're offering to do them afterwards.....

Though, how would i explain that to the GF!!

you won them in a raffle  :wonder:

Good call. I could say i won a Briskoda competition. Thankfully she doesn't know that the best prizes you win on here are trolley tokens.

Thanks PastyBoy.

Looks good John

I'll hopefully have my new suspension fitted by April, so should look even better.

Excellent, will be good to see how it does with the new set up

Eibach Pro-Kit and Bilstein B8's ordered, just hope one of the offers to help fit from earlier in the thread are still available.

:( :D :D :D

I'm going to post this question here as there are just too many threads to crawl through to get the answer i want but when changing the suspension over, is the below the only other bits i'm going to need:

Depending how low you plan on going you may need shortened drop links too. Although, if it's just a 25mm drop from the Eibachs you should be fine leaving the standard ones in. Your basket contents are all you should need parts wise

I trimmed my rear bump stops down a touch, lowered 25mm on ap springs and dampers

I did consider the Cupra? shortened bump stops but thought they might not be worthwhile with just the Eibachs.

Leave the bump stop john no need for them unless yours are starting to perish then you may aswell do them at the same time

If you do decide on shortened bump stops here's the part number 6Q0 512 131D

I ran shortened bump stops when I had Koni fsds and eibach springs, not sure if it's required though!

Looks like you have everything if you felt like being OCD then you could change drop links to the meyle hd ones.

Yesterday i bought the Leon Cupra splitter and ordered the shortened bump stops from Seat.

 

Today, some stickers were removed ready for new ones to be put on tomorrow.

Great pictures. Whereabouts in the Lakes were they taken? The Yorkshire ones are on the North York Moors and Whitby aren't they?

Cheers.

The Lakes pics are on the Wrynose Pass, Hardknott Pass, parked next to Wast Water and heading around Honister Pass.

Yep, that's where the Yorkshire pics were taken. Never been before but glad i have now.
