Someone told me that you need the spacers on the front to clear the coilovers :S also would it not look better with spacers on the front rather than the back ?

Hmm just a bit undecided because I do quite like them :\ could do with a photoshop or something maybe have to request one, one day. But thanks mate, will defo keep it in mind because I am always thinking weither to lose them but then i change my mind. I do like it, I just sometimes think...

Thanks mate :)

Dunno I quite like the tints :\

Thanks. And I was thinking about it, maybe just silver but I dunno quite like the little bit of green lol. And I've got some on :( 15mm on front and just 5mm on back. And Raceland ones.

Haha thanks mate. Finally got it lowered today so looks even better now aha. Really pleased with it now. And I'm leaving it now spent enough money lol. And why you can get Onto a new project with your golf mate.

O great don't want it to be too firm but it's too low. An although I love the look just impractical :(

Na I'm ok ATM got 5mm on so we will see how that goes mate

How big are the spacers and have you got/ did you need extended bolts ? Fancy chucking them in swell ? ;)

Cool. And haha chuck them in then mate ;) and I'm getting the 172 wheels ain't I mate. Remember swap for dynamique wheels.

I am defo gonna get some lol. I'll have a look on eBay. And there is also a local motor shop down the road so I'll go and have a look. If not eBay it is

There only like £10 of eBay. Are these not the correct ones. And I know I would like to come out safe lol

Thanks for all the replies, think I'm deffo gonna ger some spring compressors, seems the most sensible thing to do, as I dont really fancy the spring going through me lol.

Dont you have to get a part of the strut. Like the top washer or something by looking at guides ?

As title says really, getting some coilovers this week, and gonna be fitting them, just need to know if I need spring compressors or if I can do without ? Thanks

Thanks :D will do once coilovers are on, and getting 172 bumper on ;) cool, and think I might do mate :)

DSCF3516 by Brad-Smith, on Flickr So I'm in the process of getting some coilovers, to get rid of the monster truck look lol. The ones I'm after have 58mm bolt spacing, is this correct for my car ? Thanks in advance.

Thanks :D And probably will, just I could swap my original dynamique wheels for some 172 wheels so I thought why not, and will try both on the car, and see which I prefer.

Thanks thats good to hear, thought that was going to be more money lol

Basically as the title says, I'm getting a sport rear bumper will i need sport arch liners or can I just use the original ones off my non-sport ?

yeah I'm buying his sport bumper and wheels, and was thinking of getting them off him, but then its just a direct copy lol :/ so I dunno aha.

Cheers mate. And it was £200 IIRC, I had everything colour coded and a few marks done. And yeah was thinking of that TBH, was thinking maybe a baby blue :/
