it needs coilovers me thinks!
it still looks to high and you wont be doing your shocks any favours with lowering that low just on springs. you can pick up cheapy coilovers for non sports for about £300 new.

Thanks for all the comments. Clioandy105 - its lowered 60mm but as frosty said it should look lower in a few hundred miles. Im running it on a fixed suspension kit so its got decent shocks as well as springs! And Vein - im not sure abouut the backing either. I forogt to tell the bodyshop to leave it black. I think it just screws on and off so i might swap it with the black backing from my original bumper.
I cant remember what the paint code is..its metalic blue but cant remember what its called. I'll check tomorrow.
I picked up a cup splitter and the wheel arch liners i need from dutch182 yeseterday so they will be on the car tomorrow morning and hopefully should have some pics of it on the car on tuesday.
Im thinking of getting my wheels powder coated..can anyone tell me what i should expect to pay for 4 wheels in black?

i dont think id do a very good job tbh.
ive put the standard black diamond backing on, took it off my original bumper. i think it looks a lot better! i should be fitting the splitter tomorrow and if i can get some plugs to secure the front wheel arch liner then it will almost be all done on the outside of the car

yeh new wheel arch liners. if/when you buy new wings try and get the arch liners with them! otherwise its a mission trying to get the arch liners on their own.
no they have a part number just order that :S
yeah for complete front arch liners its like 120quid iirc :dapprove:
Splitter is now fitted, looks loads better now. And in the photos you can see the diamond backing is black again. Also sorted out the wheel arch liners so now all i need are soome spacers and maybe a change of wheels.
Also a picture of the aerial after I took a hacksaw to it
And a nice one

looks good mate, porter cable the rear spoiler to bring out the shine as it looks a little flat / hazey / matte. nice rep buddy, if you decided a change in wheels then my bro may well be interested

lol was just writting that too :approve:
right..ive had loads of people ask about the wheels and i havnt even listed them yet lol.
i MIGHT sell them if i get a good offer. im going to be honest about them, they probably do need a refurb but you could still drive around with them like they are and still look s**t hot. the tyres..a couple will need changing soon, the other two are pretty good still.
i had a centre cap stolen a few weeks ago which i have replaced but i havnt got round to spraying it black like the others, but if you are refurbing them this wont make a difference to you! im after some 172ff wheels in black so if anyone has anyone they want to swap with mine then pm me.
as for the spolier..it is dull, not sure why but i will sort it out soon. still need some spacers as well so if anyone has any going cheap let me know!
