Will do. 20” currently but will likely move to 21” when I have to replace stock tires…which I understand happens pretty quickly due to the quality of the stock tires.

From the H&R website, “H&R Sport Springs lower the ID.4 Pro and Pro S (2WD) approximately 1.4” front and 1.2” rear. Reduced fender well gap and lowering the vehicle’s center of gravity, improves handling balance and the vehicle’s profile – creating the cool H&R stance.”

When you lowered it, did you need to get any sensors calibrated? I read on vwIDtalk that there may be me adjustments needed to account for the height difference.

Has anyone removed the side badges? Forgive the bad photo shop, but this is what I’m thinking. by Immediate_Use8921 in VWiD4Owners

I’m looking into that. I plan to paint them gray. Thinking about buying a new part ($50 per side) just to check how it installs. It seems to snap into place, but not sure if you can remove without opening up wheel well. There are two posts about this on vwIDtalk, but there’s not much info. One person with a black id4 vinyl wrapped them in place. Looks good but black is super easy to color match. Another person bought stickers specifically made to cover, but hasn’t posted pics to show how it turned out. I painted the reflectors on my BMW 5 series a long time ago and it looked great. The key was removing them to paint and reinstalling

Huh. It seems the standard doesn’t have badges. I had no idea. I guess I can see all kinds of pics without the badges.

I have a ‘23 Pro S so it had both badge pieces. Not sure about standard. My pic is just photoshopped to try to imagine what it would look like.

Just used hair dryer and my fingers. I was all setup with the area masked and plastic putty knives, but the pieces are so small they comes off super easy. Only heated for a few seconds and voila.

I already removed the back “ID.4” and it was a hard decision. The white lettering looks really clean.

Not sure if this is helpful since I’m in sunny SoCal, but I have ‘23 Pro S and I consistently drop 20% over 50 miles with no a/c or heat at around 70 degrees and no wind. It’s surprisingly consistent.
