hey look, its me! i'm 19, live in south london and sell car parts for a living.
The thing is, IDF plates also drop the rear end an inch or two, which meant I was tucking. Good news, you'd think, right? Wrong. Lots of rubbing. Poor Pirellis.

So, after some raising, plastic cutting and driving around the local park with people in the back, I can proudly say it still rubs, but only with people in the back, or under compression. The rear adjusters are nearly halfway up, but they made like a few mm difference haha. Could be worse I guess. Would prefer the tuck to be even front and rear, but front is at its max. The sill is level though. Either way, thanks to @kuba.fwcz for helping.

Toe is questionable on passenger side too. Same shim and washer setup, yet a noticeable difference. Maybe its had a fight with a kerb in its lifetime...
In other news, I've joined the official VW Owners Club! A leak has emerged from the Bora! Not sure where its coming from, but its not directly under the sump. Its sort of behind it. Not sure whats leaking either, but its not water or fuel, must be oil. Could be worse.

Either way, this development has convinced me to raise my engine, and because this is a budget build, I am unfortunately going to have to wait till the end of the month. But with MOT only a couple months away, tyres rubbing under compression due to soft springs and my FKs horribly leaking, this may turn into a slighty less budget build quicker than we may think...

But here is a picture by a closed down VW showroom, and a photo dump of me and my girlfriend gathering a table and chairs over the weekend.
