It'll be a while before I can finish the air, but why not? I bought some stuff a long time ago in hopes of airing the GTI, but I wanted to buy a GS and decided to just air the GS instead.

If you're planning on riding low, make sure the bag doesn't rub the spindle. This cause blowouts. I don't know if the Tein CS will clear since the shock body isn't adjustable.

and dont forget about the Upper control arm rubbing I finally found that mine IS doing so... Not sure if the Coilovers will help with that, if not you're gonna need these:

Yeah, I have heard about the bag rubbing the upper control arm. I talked to a guy from Universal Air when I called up there and he said it rubs when using stock/OEM/OEM replacement/OEM Styled struts. I asked if coilovers (the CS's) will do it, and he said nope.

I took some pictures of the stock suspension for anyone who needs pics of it for reference.

After doing the lower ball joints, I found out that the tie rod ends are pretty much shot, too.

This thread looks familiar, but are you on VWvortex? Can't remember where I saw this from.

c4lvin

Haha, yup. I'm on Vortex. I posted this in the Air Suspension forums there.
