You literally said you can't drive it on the road without it almost spinning. What the f00k is wrong with you if you think that's acceptable for a car driven on public roads? I'm not twisting your words, I'm not adding anything, I'm literally repeating what you have written. That is the full story as far I'm concerned.

Why do people with low cars usually have equally as low IQ's?

I think here it looks "different" but actually rather good!, you've clearly got good skills with the welder/fabricating body work! I'm not keen on really low cars but the work you have done yourself is to a very high standard and if you love it thats all that matters!
Gotta love the hate! as I'm respraying mine a non bmw colour which is not far off a death sentence to some on here

8O

Look forward to seeing the next garish modification to the poor thing :mad:

I think the Zender kit on the rear helps with the look.

Each and every one to their own. Not everyone should be an OEM whore.

Not to my taste to be honest. I prefer more of a subtle look. I lowered a cav gsi 60 mm back in the day. The spax suspension was running on the stops. That thing was incredibly bumpy. Handled like a giant go kart mind.

The older I got the more I preferred the oem look. Having said that every now and again I do go out, look at my 30 and get the temptation to lower it and generally concilify it. One day I want to buy something I can do that to without feeling guilty for financially ruining a classic.

I say good luck to you mate, fair play to the skills you have shown. I wish I could do bodywork stuff like that. If it passes an mot and you drive with care and don't kill yourself or anyone else I say good luck.
