lol :D Same way i canna stand white wheels, gie me the boak:rambo:

The xpower exhausts are suppposed to be very good...not sure how much choice you get on tailpipes though. Think it's just the inwardly rolled 5"?!?! How you finding your springs after settling in?? :)

The springs were on my old car so not much settling in to be done, but it looks much better lowered will put up some pic's later today.

They were supposed to lower my mk1 by 30mm so not sure but I can't put my finger between the wheel and the arch at the front or the back.
