looks great but you need to sort that arch gap out!
If you can't see the angle, you're in trouble.

LOL it is already hard as a rock and the suspension quite new ...
If I lower it more it would not go in the drive without the body touching on the drive :whistle: ](*,)

You said what I was thinking, but was too polite to say...... :whistle:

Agree that the car does look great though - nice shiny black =P~

..the only thing I can promise for sure is slow progress.

just have this niggling thought that if I rip out the wiring, then the car will never get out of the garage again.

Still in the garage...

All views are welcome guys ... at the end of the day everyone is entitlted to their opinion :)

I do like lowered cars and I do think the gap is bigger than I would like ... however I dont want to make the car like my Supra ... could not go anywhere without touching ... not even to the MOT place lol ... took them 30mins more just to manage to put the Supra in lol

Nice and shiney, needs a little lowering IMHO.

Shame about the rear fog light, I hate when importers do that.

Could always wire that into the rear lamps, then get a replacement bumper or fill the hole?

Other than that top class!
Black and gold look ace! :thumleft:

OK OK I will look into lowering it ... I assume changing only the springs will do the trick?
My God I cannot imagine how harder it will be if I put lowered springs on the car.
At the moment when I press the front the car does not move... and when I press the rear it does not move either! lol
When I drive ... I move like the old mini passengers lol ..lol lol

No it is a a Rev3
Why would the old bill pull me over?? they stopped me the other day for speeding, but a coach was between me and their radar so they could not give me a ticket ... they only warned me as they followed me with 88mph, but I was civilized going fast not being silly :)
