Update uno...

Started lowering it tuesday night when my apex 50mm kit came from Kam.
started with the torsion bar as this would take the longest (5 hours to be exact)

F3n doing something for once ;)

HP came in for a nose

got in at about 12am was proper knackered
so wednesday we done the front took about 1hour and a half....

final product.




im not to sure but the rear seems abit un-even
drivers side

passengers


what do you think?

also ordered a mk2 rear wiper and a green cotton panel filter.

Hopcraft 6th March 2009 18:14

Depends if you have a full tank of petrol, obv one side will be slightly lower.

Anyway, didnt you use a ruler ? Measure twice, cut once, impossible to go wrong...
