Let us know how you get on, or pop in on the way home so I can have a gander! B)

Excellent! Something I was considering...how much did it cost you? PM me if you would prefer not to say on here.

They are cracking to be fair. I think the front is a little too low. Catching the sump on a couple of bits by the house, but as long as I take it steady I should be ok. I would have mate, but with 2 crashes on the M56, and after only just getting back after leaving at 5. I kinda wanted to get straight home. :thumbup:

Will dig the invoice out the car tomorrow and will let you know. It was around £750 including fitting, new top mounts, new shorter droplinks and new bumpstops. :thumbup:

That's only your undertray. Dont worry about it too much

Back needs to go lower!

looks a good stance. One thing though and it could jus be photos, but the front wheel seems like far back in the arch - are the bushes ok?

The back needs to settle. Only been on a couple of days. They are wound right down at the back, and i'm not taking the cup out.

I think its the pics. The do sit a bit back. Awesome did the fitting and said it was spot on. Will take a look at the camber reading on the GEO sheet.

yeh gonna say i dont doubt awesome know what theyre doing, jus seems a little back...but deffo love the stance and car looks tidy :)

Just checked the Caster readings. Left Final 2.2* Right 4.6*.

Does this sound about right?

Cool ta mate.

Too low at the front imo, but it's your car. No wonder you're having probs with the lanes; it's virtually a snow plough! ;)

What's the ride quality like, compared to the Eibach's?

Yeah yeah, that's what I said...

thank god, thought i was cracking up!!!

I thought it had been photoshopped! Not seen anything quite like it that's actually drivable!

its the same as the other three...?

Edit: ah, you mean the OP's front wheel. Could just be the angle of the pic?

Edited by Medium

can you not see that its not in the centre of the arch?

yeah front wheel doesnt look good as if its had a shunt and the wishbones bent or something throwing the wheel back in the arch :doh:
