Question about my VW

I just put on an H&R touring cup suspension kit on my MK4 jetta and it was supposed to lower it 1.5" in the front and 1.4" in the back... The thing is is that it actually looks lower in the back than in the front and it doesn't look like it lowered too much in the front at all. I don't know if it was something we didn't do right or what but does anyone have any pics of their lowered VWs to give me an idea of how it should look or any advice? Or do I just need to go lower....... I'm confused Any input is appreciated

Yeah a lot of kits do that, unless you get a kit that lowers more in the front you'll usually notice it. also what motor is in your jetta? are they the correct springs for what motor ou have?

If I remember correctly...

Most H&R Kits are designed for Golfs/GTi's, considering the Jetta counterparts use the same setup. Unfortunately H&R seemed to forget Jettas have trunks, and as such are a bit ass heavy. Atleast, that was my take on the situation.

Understandable, but my point is H&R kits for Jetta were designed for a Golf/GTi, so sometimes ya have a bit of bulldog style ass sag. So you have the right kit for your car.
