And this is what it sat like on the lowest setting... about 70mm

How low can you have it keeping the arch lining in matey?

CHIP · 8th December 2008, 23:12

Well the i cut the lining because i thought the 'coilovers' were going to go lower than 70mm (which they didnt)... but to be fair if they didnt rub at 70mm it certainly would have at 80mm i reckon. It would have been very close lol.

Well people, kind of an end of an era for my car i guess lol. Next Saturday i should be raising it (and fixing the axle). Going to be about 80mm on the back after, so not like it is now. Which im kinda excited and kinda abit down about lol.
So anyway, me and my mate decided to go take some pics before it was raised... hope you like.

And possibly my personal favourite, due to the colour:

CHIP · 24th January 2009, 23:57

And yes, i look a goon on that pic haha

mauritius blue always looks good when light shines on it like in the last picture dude.

shame about the raising but its a good thing i guess.

Afraid not dude. I sent the whole kit back and got my money back (eventually). Sorry.

As for the colour, yea your right. My mate once got a picture in daylight (lost it now) and my car was green, blue and purple. Looked awesome lol.

Thats partially the reason it's being raised. I can get over them, just have to be careful. But they're now building them outside work, so i'll have to tackle them everyday

-Richard- · 25th January 2009, 00:56

what you got at the front?
