	well, i'm not interested in that at the moment, tho i do have another
question.  i wanna know if there are any of these "lower spindles" or
some such thing available for our precious A1s.  i have dropped my mk1
jetta quite a bit, and the control arms are pointing up to a very
noticable degree.  is there anything that i can do that'll allow me to
keep the car its current height (and/or lower it a bit more :)), but
still keep the arms parallel to the ground?  thanks.
