I want to lower my front more. My rear sits slightly lower than the front because I haven't gotten around to properly setting the height since I put on the coilovers. Thing is I love how the rear sits. Sadly the front is all the way down...

Well, for cars like that, buying another fiberglass bumper for 150 bucks or so is frequently a lot cheaper than trying to find a decent replacement from a junkyard or something.
For me, the thing that makes all the difference is that they aren't posuers basically (guys from Risky Devil). Yeah, his car is very low, but he's not pretending like it's some kind of expensive track beast, he knows it's slammed, it's all in good fun and moments like those make for good memories. He doesn't look like an idiot in my eyes, simply because he's not trying to be something he's not.
On the other hand, if he was trying to pass his car off as the most awesome thing since sliced bread, getting all butt hurt about it getting scratches in the paint and crap, then yeah, he's an idiot, he thinks too highly of himself and then makes himself look like a fool.
Kind of difficult to explain, but I'll try to put it into a simple example, it's like the difference between someone who isn't good at something, and can acknowledge that fact, as opposed to someone who isn't good at something, but pretends he is and tries his hardest to "look the part" to impress others. The first guy is sort of "meh" and nobody cares, but the second guy just ends up looking like a complete idiot and no one really likes him. Same idea here, I don't care if a car is slammed or riced out, as long as the owner accepts it for what it is.

No, no, bad idea.
Lowered car with stock body = Looks fine
Lowered car with kit = Looks fine
Stock height with stock body = Looks fine
Stock height with body kit = Failure
Not to mention driving the car will be more fun with the car lowered, assuming you get a decent suspension. No fun is gained from a body kit.

I can't believe how basic the interior is on that golf...

I love how mk1 and mk2 Golfs had that shelf where the glovebox normally is. Few cars ever had that since then. It's super handy.

It almost embodies that "What do you really need?" Thread. Essentially, all you really need are controls with which to drive it, and a speedometer to conform to the letter of the law.
On an unrelated note, how clean do those seats look? Not at all bad for a 30-year old economy car, that's for sure.

I was going to post that myself but decided not to because of the stickers.
I still love it though...

I'm not a fan of the stickers either, nor the wing, however functional it is for the Wangan. So I guess this is about perfect:
I've wanted an AD-GT RX7 with CE28Ns for a while now, don't know how long I can hold off now....
