B5 Tdi sport suspension advice

hey lads, I'm collecting a 99 b5 Tdi sport saloon tomorrow, it's a nice clean standard car it sits a wee bit high, I used to have a b5.5 Tdi sport and I liked the height of the standard sport suspension, I'm wondering if I could fit the b5.5 sport springs to my b5 to drop it a small bit? Any advice ...

Re: Looking for a splitter for my b4

I'm trying to find a front lip also, I've seen pictures of the old Volvo 940 ones and they look pretty good, I think the Vento one needs to be extended, lots of people seem to go for the seat ones too, it's hard to know
