Here is what it used to look like.

[AKdub914]

U raised it up n put chunkier tires on?

[2tnicrbbt]

are u parting the car or is this a winter set-up?

[TeamZleep]

Wow... I'm over 4 inches lowered from stock... and I'm still not low.

[mldouthi]

I had K-sports on the car, and couldnt even drive down gravel roads for rock climbing so I decided to go the other direction with it. The car is lifted 1in from stock. I made strut spacers for the front and used some jeep spring spacers in the back. For the time being I have the stock steelies with 215/70/15 tires. So in total the car is lifted 6 inches from when I had coilovers.

I am working on a light bar/brush guard looking thing that I am mounting 4 hella 500 lights to. Those are the pictures coming later.

Future plans are making fender flares and some steelies with less offset and wider.

[VeeeDubn]

ha yeah this will be pretty cool.

[AlexsVR6]

At least you got rid of those wheels.

[mldouthi]

Waiting for plastic dip to dry on the light bar.

Im having trouble finding where there is a hole in the firewall to get the wiring through. Any help would be appreciated.

[RedRumGTI]

I want to see this, should put some mud flaps on it too

[KyleCrish]

im actually excited to see this

you definitely need some rally mudflaps.

[mldouthi]

That is actually on the list. We have a cnc table at work that I was going to try to cut some VW emblems in them.

Light bar mounted. Still trying to figure out the wiring. To bad its not like my old truck. Rubber grommet right by the gas pedal. haha.

[mldouthi]

Better pictures with a clean car will come later.

Looks pointless to me to have those lights on the front, but it is your car. I would probably laugh as well if I saw this rolling.

I think the lights make it.

This is pretty damn awesome IMO dude!

And where do you put fog lights on your car? I guess all those rally guys are doing it wrong as well.

The guys that rally don’t drive a Rabbit.

[sbvwfanatic]

Actually very cool.

[VeeeDubn]

haha that is awesome!

[TeamZleep]

On the honesty boat, I LOVE IT! Need a few more things to make it really pop off, but I like where you're going with this.

[PGJettaFTW]

two thumbs up from this guy!

[ABAcabby]

Looks sweet. What kind of gas mileage are you getting with all that stuff on it now though?

[TeamZleep]

I seriously don't know why... But the more I look at this, the more I wanna do it... Call me crazy, but it'd be badass to drive the turbo'ed rabbit EVERYWHERE. Off road rally like a mofo!

[crack monkey]

dude pull some more stuff on the golf country for influence.

i was actually thinking of something similar with my jetta.... mainly because of my bad knees and back.. be easier to get out of.

looks good man keep it up

[Ozzker]

I .... really really like it!!

Great Work!! In for more progress!!

[dehkiddneto]

idk what to think of this, any more pictures?
