It's called Mauritious Blue mate, the best colour for a saxo IMO, get them wheels black or anthracite

Right, this was lowerd 3 weeks ago, 50mm on the front, to the deck on the back... It's 20mm higher1 side than the other, im guessing the garage i took it too used the spline method..

What amount of mm is it per spline?

Pretty sure the spline way of lowering is a fast way to ruin your rear axle?

Thread Updated.
New picture uploaded to main thread taken today, after a little wash to get bird shmit off the car.

Oh and i took it to a different garage and they dropped the rear axle and did it the proper way, its to the MM now and the ride is reasonably smooth for being so low.

Cambelt waterpump pulleys changed.
Bumpstrips & sidestrips have been resprayed.
Removed rear seats
Finaly got round to spraying my Dimma grill gloss in the nice weather also.

Bonet soon to be carbonfibre wrapped, needs a respray due to deep scratches but i dont fancy getting stone chips so im going for protection and a cover up in one.
(No one mention bonet bra!, hate them.)

Shattered my phone screen so excuse the lack of pics
