slammed baywindow

check this video from the T2D boys, gotta love it. I saw the bus at the Volksworld show, it rocks

SLAMMED

i can ruin this thread with one word...........air. was cool when first done but new owner has fitted air to the front to get it resting on the floor at shows.

use to be cool.

everything that comes out of t2d is just as cool as that
you should has seen his 3A passat!!!

seen this round mildenhal, verry nice

Ballsy's bay is still lower than any other bay even with suspension up, drives it around planted to the floor anyway . have you seen the tubs on the thing? still mentally cool He hardly drove it without air cos it was lethally lo
edit -ok not lower than any other bay - forgot about a couple

I saw this at Bug Jam last year and thought it looked pretty ugly. It was on the stock wheels and just didn't look too good, in my opinion.

Then saw it at Hunstanton a couple of weeks back, with the new Fuchs' and it looks awesome


Actually got to speak to the owner too, and he is really cool.

Apparently they only installed air in order to get it onto the ferry over to France/Belgium for Ninove or something.
He still drives it on the floor, even with the air:

but when its parked up it sits on the bumper these days, shoud have left it with out the air bags, the fuch wheels work perfectly on it for sure!

i've also seen this bay, outside our local sainsbury's, bury cinema and i've also heard that he drops his wife and kids off at school on his way to work every morning. i dont think that he could do this if it wasn't for the suspension.

When i saw him in mildenhall he went over a bump but didnt put it up before going over scraped the hell out of it

I don't see what the problem is with air?

Its cheating really aint it

i like this with or with out air suspension. the work that must of gone into
body dropping a bay... hats off to them and putting air on the front hasn't ruined it ,its just made it more drivable.

How is it cheating? Nothing wrong with wanting a daily which is super lower whilst not wanting inconvenience or causing damage in places where you might go, plus hassle of trying to jack it up to fix should it go wrong

It's just the convenience of it which makes so much sense

i share your view tbh ashley but there are hoardes of people who say otherwise.

Ive not really got a problem with air, its just i think its more suited to the newwave cars, and i dotn really like how ppl think it gives you instant stance when it dont lol

i just dont see the point in them, looks slammed and awesome parked up but driving along looks gash, and if people are worried about scrapping over speed bumps then they shouldnt lower the car that much. just dont get the point in them

i wouldn't say air is "cheating" it's jsut a more practical way of doing for those that can afford it! if i had the money i'd have it! if the corrado had air i'd still be driving it now.

at the end of the day it's all about opinion, and in mine, air is the way, if i had the cash and the right car, i'd have it, no matter how old the car was.

Have you ever seen this bay drive down the road and look gash? this van has been lowered 12" then the 17" wheels lifted it back up so he then chose to tubb the front and got it down another 3". the trackin has been set to drive 2" off the floor and he does upto speeds off 70 or more he doesnt like to lift it up but if you could get the front bumper of a bay to sit on the floor wouldnt you show it, I cant wait to see the back bumper sit down on the ground. All his work is his own and can be seen on the T2D web site beakers blog.

if you new the mat,the cars, vans,etc he's worked on over the years.i think you wouldnt be so anti!!,look through the mags and his name pops up on some of the coolest vw's around.

Im not dissign his work atall, i can see and respect the work gon into it, but im of the option that air jsut doesnt suit the oldskool cars, that is all.

im not dissing him what so ever, i think the bus is cool as hell, just id like it more with out the air bags, i dont like air bags, i dont see the point in them and i think they are a waste of money on any car, but thats just me.

how is a rat late bay on 17" fuchs old school, and how else could you lay it down onthe ground

Poeple are allowed different opinions mate, get over it.
