i must get some pics up of my car..anyway i find them to be excellent mate they have completely revamped the hole sex apeal of the car you really can throw it and out of corners rapidly with great control and of course it looks so much better

^ See i've lost all confidence in the car now. handlings unpredicatable and sh*t basically.

If you can afford it go for the Eibac's!

^^ nope don't agree .. sorry Apex handling is gash, crashy, bouncy stock set up is so much better handling wise

Everyone is different, fit them and see what you think, I love the way mine looks and they are a stop gap to coilovers for me hence keeping them :)

Cup turinis in steel grey...they used to be on Marks clio.

They do look good :)

I'm thinking about coilies too, but at the prices the missus would kill me!! I've got a wedding to save for! :(.....i mean :) lol
