one step forward, two steps back....
got it down, it's LOW, but it'll work for now, might have to raise it a bit eventually... unfortunately, the shock is hitting the brake line for some reason, so i'll have to bend it out of the way, but at least i have some suspension again!!
here's how it sits now... hooked up the tie rods too, looks like it'll be ok, probably rub a bit at a sharp turn, but it's worth it!! i might still switch 145/65's though and gain a little more space...
also, i am dumb and figured out how to get the wolfsburg emblem to sit right... looks cool...
ok, last thing... i was gonna paint the fenders to match the rest of the body, so i took off the glove box door to take to the paint shop for them to scan, but, as you can see, the paint on the outside doesn;t quite match the inside (i am pretty sure the interior is still original paint)... oh well, i'll have to carry the rear deck in....
