The only option for looks is coilovers. Period. None of the suspension kits drop low enough.

However I regret getting coilovers due to the maintainance they need and the constant problems I'm getting with steering angles and pulling etc.

Here are the reasons why I vote for the Eibach Pro Kit.

1) The springs are progressive, so it means for comfort they are sometimes better than stock over smaller bumps, not all cars experience this but thats the design idea.

2) The springs are made to be used to work with stock dampers, little birdy told me that most other aftermarket springs will work with OEM dampers, however they were originally designed and work best with their own aftermarket shocks, so another reason if you want to stick with stock shocks go with Eibach, if not then get the spring and damper combo.

3) Its fully TUV approved and has all the quality marks and backing, you can't really go wrong with a family run business that has always put customers and R&D first.

Sounds like I am a Eibach salesman but thats my views anyway, and I will always continue to buy Eibach if I intend to just lower a car on stock suspension and springs, and have told all my mates the same stuff and reasons why, and none of them have ever come back saying I was wrong.. yet :p

Can't comment as I've only had stock and the full eibach kit. However most people assume eibachs are progressive. This is not the case on yhe fabia, they are linear. Don't believe check the eibach site.

As for them being designed for oem dampers. I think what they mean is their not stupid low that it will kill the dampers. Not them being matched to them.

Not tried them on my Fab yet, but I do trust them enough to get them again. Had them in previous cars I've owned and recommended to mates and we all love them. Didn't realise the Fab one is linear! But to be fair I'm after a little lower and better handling when I get round to this :)

As for dampers they defo don't kill them off like other springs do, if its at the sacrifice of not being stupid low and being able to drive over speed bumps I'm in :thumbup:

Guess I should have done a little bit more research into the Fab ones before I posted, but my post was drawn from my previous experience and they have all been positive for me :)
