I'd start by cutting two coils off, see how it sits. I've cut four coils off my mk3, it's very low but the ride and handling is excellent

There is an excellent 'how-to' guide in Practical Performance Car' magazine this month (October issue), I recommend buying it and it well tell you exactly how to do it if your unsure. Also reccomend all those people who say 'it's unsafe to cut springs!' read it aswell
