Hi i recently bought this 2000 plate clio need a few tips on ride height.

[vMikeT]

So... as it says above i bought this car 2 days agofor 475 everything that you see came as it is.

What im worried about is the front bumper/skirt scraping on bumps/humps, pot holes what ever.
if i was to fit 30mm or 35mm lowering springs all way round would that make it any higher and be better or would i be okay as it is now i dont have alot of ground clearance on the front at the moment so any suggestions on what i can do maybe higher springs or something.
I dont fancy paying £400 for coilovers.
hopefully the pics are not to bad.
Thanks
Mike T

I would start by removing the bumper skirts and putting a front spillter on change the rear lights to std and paint the wheels silver and the wing mirror covers to match the car first

Guys and girls, if you can't answer his question, don't spam the thread.

OP - buy a set of secondhand standard shocks and springs for the ph1, fit those and take the front splitter off and ground clearance etc will be fine.
