Looking good there, how does it feel lowered though ?
roads are bumpy enough without feeling like bits of grit are boulders.

Looks good Kev. Will it settle any? Hopefully not as perfect like that.

It's a shame it only has 80 ps though ;)

I was thinking that. The lowering has downtuned to engine :(

No it don't look good, it don't look bad - looks SWEET!!!

Just had mine lowered after a lot of hassle with motobuild springs but he came good in the end and told me to keep the rear wrong springs for compo, still doesn't look as low as yours i would be proud of that slam, didn't know that you could get two tone in that colour - silver and dust - LOL

Doesnt sound like very good compo to me! What good are the wrong springs to you..? ..lol
Kev looks good! Very stealth!
Forgot how low it looks!!! Glad they turned up in the end, was getting a bit worried.

It looked easy enough to do, it was my mate that done the deed though.

Looks perfecto how much of a drop?

30mm I think.

lol, a better spoiler though.

Looking good there, how does it feel lowered though ?

It feels rather tight as I fitted Ross's shocks from his touring car(Which were never used on the road), so it drives better ie more precise steering.

It's a shame it only has 80 ps though ;)

lol, yeah the 1 fell off, need to get a new badge, as for the springs settling they at least a 1 year old, but the shocks are sort of new so it might drop further.

Yeah Dave, was getting worried myself, but when they arrived I was overjoyed, you could have marked which was the fronts and rears etc :) , only joking.

We were driving around Glasgow, Trossacks area, last year, some potholes were more like bomb craters.

Think the sign is too near the truth.

Nah he sent me a set of his rear BLACK 180 springs which levelled it up just perfectly rather than looking like an indie car and the red CIVIC springs which i had been sent originally I was told to keep and sell on E-Bay for my troubles!! Nice!!

Looks great, just how I would have a mk2.

The drop is better than mine on motobogde springs, much lower at the front.
