Â£130 + P+P for dampers and springs, sounds pretty good to me, i'll get a set for my 6K when I get it tomorrow.

why go 60 when you can go 75

you might want to consider coils, when mine was 40, i was happy for a bit, but then you just want to have it lower and lower, might be worth waiting and getting some coils, muxh fun to be had putting it on the floor.

always fun trying to find away of getting the jack under to jack it up lol
