    i just spotted that the r32 is fitted with a spacer that not all mk4's are fitted with
    this spacer is fitted it's to raise the height of mk4's fitted with the vw Sport Suspension kit you could get for the mk4 after 2001
    by removing the spacer you can lower the front by 10mm you can also raise at by 10mm by fitting a 20mm spacer

    1J0412311A 10mm spacer as fitted to the r32
    1J0412311 20mm spacer

    you make a bigger spacer or more than one for that 4x4 look :lol:

    the above spacers can be used on any mk4
    and would think could on a mk3 as well
