RE: [Mk1 tuning] pics of GR2 parts up

["Scott Williams" <sfwilliams@home.com>]

Yup, when I mentioned that the kit was a little bit too wild for the street,
I wasn't really talking about the looks! I mean that you can expect a
horrendous amount of wind noise, lowered top speed, crappy gas mileage,
cracked flares and airdam (due to how far they protrude), etc. It probably
does reduce a measurable amount of lift and will certainly cover some
steamroller tires. However, it doesn't look practical at all for everyday
use, imho.

Whatever the case, it is totally BAD ASS! :^)

I'd guess this kit will endow a Scirocco with a Cd in the range of 0.Big
Brick Wall as opposed the stock 0.Cardboard Box.  As for stability, any
airdam that big has got to reduce front end lift at least a little.
