    Looking at the front of your TT it looks very similar to mine. I did paint the bottom grills gloss back, and also the headlight inserts I chose to go tinted for the indicator lenses. Its a good look 👌

    I left my bushings out in the sun for like an hour or so and it seem to help make them more pliable prior to install

    ​@@Al-qv5vs did you tried PowerFlex / polyurethane bushings ? I am also trying to decide, but I think since my car/bushings have almost 300 000 km, normal ones should feel like a good "upgrade" for many km.

    Hoping for your reply: How's about Drop links, ball joints and tie rods? Do they survived the stiffness? upgraded sway bar and wishbone with poly bushes, but weeks after suspension started to clunk.. Just wondering it's because of new bushes or normal wear and tear

    So for ball joint i still have the ones that my TT had since i got it like 5 years ago, tie rods, & sway bars were replaced prior to doing the powerflex bushings so far everything’s been holding up no clunks or anything like that car feels very planted in turns Check your cv axles i upgraded mine, but if youre lowered, also try checking your upper strut mount bushing its notorious for clunks

    Very good BTW... But, you should have replaced the ball joints for good measure, now that the "vibrations" will be much greater. Would save you another trip down there in the near future 👍
