just recently lowered my car really like the stance n just luv drivin it. also got a bmc for it aswel which sounds awesome. fitted both myself n im a sparki so not all that mechanically minded found it fairly easy with the guides on ere only got stuck with sum bolts that wouldnt budge. anyway heres sum pics. its been washed since n adjusted coilies abit levelled rear up t same height as front.

wheels i had done a while ago anthracite with a metal flake so they sparkle in the sun. luk real good. (when its clean)

rear was a bit too low getting on my drive was a bit of a mission.

decided to spray up all the grills n stuff made a hell of a difference.

Liking that a lot!

What's the little button for - ejector seat? :lol:

Also, would it not have been easier to remove the lower grille to spray it rather than spray everything behind the grille black too?

i havent a clue how low really but itl probably be risen up a little bit once its settled properly cos i dont wana damage sump or watever it is cos sum of the roads round ere r a bit on the bumpy side.


all mudguards r standard as far as i know i presume scrappy wud be ur best bet.

an ejector seat would be quite pimp but its just for my air horn
n yer it would a been a lot easier i wasnt sure how it came out, ya gonna say its a piece o p*** afta all strugglin i had! i took the fog light grills off n managed t spray a lot of our grass in the process.

just let u know ur front tyre is on the wrong way round, the v shape is actually puttin water under the tyre rather than it going away. just need to swap the two fronts around. then they will face the right way
