Love the air ride for show purposes as I've been in the 'dub' scene for years but not sure about the other mods, inside awful in that colour.

Likewise been in Dub scene too for over 10 years, but that' is a crock of <beep>. Iv seen ppl try and pull the "Dub" look off with BMWs and Audi, dont work due to the fact that they are prestige cars. imho

I think if it had big retro dish wheels he may be more likely to get away with it but agree I think on an RS its missing the mark tbh

I'm not a big fan of doing this to performance cars either, looks better on older stuff.

definately better on older cars, why mess with perfection?

The owner goes 'all out' on all his projects, with very mad n loud interiors, but please, don't kill classiness of the B7 :thumbsdown:

ive always been into lower the better and hate air ride with a passion, static drops only, it doesnt handle the same as spirings no matter what anyone says, i want my car to be lower ''slightly'', now i dont know if its me turning into an old fogey but that just doesnt do anything for me looking like that. I think some wheels are coming from what i have read on edition 38.

a friend of mine is a uk dealer of air ride and would never think of putting it on my car as it is total sacralidge, track or no track.

plus i would be banished from here lol.

also the interior is puke, however done to a superb quality :audibash:

Not what I would do to my car but looking at the photos the quality of the workmanship seems very good. Choice of interior colours are very suspect but the retrim looks good everything looks very neat pity its not on a M3.
