    LOOK HERE for information on lowering springs/coilovers & b5 perches

    Cheers for that. I'm one of the annoying new question askers so this (and the potential offset thread) will help me out a treat. :yahoo:

    Just picked up my new (used) beast

    It is. The pic was taken by the previous owner though. It's actually 44k now. :D

    Just picked up my new (used) beast

    Not too much. Starting with the height, looking out for some well priced springs and a cupra splitter to bring that front end down where it belongs. Some spacers and an rs4 ARB to help with the steering. Then ,money permitting, looking to go down the stage 1 route. Don't really need much more...

    Leather, swirls and proper cleaning?

    Thanks Steve. I think I'm pretty much sorted now then. Going to get myself a lance off eBay as they're about half the price. Looking at the valet pro ph neutral snow foam. Then a lambs wool mitt and some microfiber towels. still not sure of a good shampoo or wax though, any suggestions?

    I actually wanted a dark grey one but when this one came up I decided black was good too.

    Hey, I'm new(ish) to the forum. Just picked up my B7 S-line special edition and thought I'd post a few starter pics. Planning a few subtle changes so I'll keep it posted.

    Leather, swirls and proper cleaning?

    Thanks, visited that website and I'm more in the know now about what's required. At least I know what sort of kit I need now. Also found a detailed down here called Autobright. So going to take it there for a good polish before I get my own grubby mitts on it.

    S Line H&R springs

    Just wondering what sort of price should I be looking at, on eBay it varies for eibach and h&r. Worried about picking up copies. Read about the b5 perches but not sure I want the "nose down" look.

    S Line H&R springs

    That's it then I'm sold. That looks the nads. Is that with 18's or 19's?

    Nice, worth the money then? Did you find the ride changed at all?

    S Line H&R springs

    Hey, does anyone have any before and after pics of an S-line with H&R springs on. As I understand it the S-line is factory lowered and just wondering what difference the springs will make in the real world. Thanks Chris

    Leather, swirls and proper cleaning?

    Hi all, I pick up my B7 S-line SE this week and the first thing I want to do is get it looking the way it should. The paint is pretty good but I'm thinking of handing it over to a professional detailer (with the required time and patience) to really bring it back to shine. Does anyone know of...
