looks good, what setup is on the front? just springs? i found that my G-max 50mm's didnt really lower it that much at all, its possible to get it another 20mm at the front i think with some shortened dampers and 60mm springs

Mark transferred his VTR 50mm springs, so on a 1.1 it only lowers about 35mm ish but no uprated damper at all although i wouldnt mind upgrading. Id rather drop the front about another 10mm and raise the rear about 20mm but im very happy as it is

Cheers!  Yea 50mm all round is quite popular, especially with coilovers, you can go however low you want if there is a spring available in this case there was

Lol ive not even started on the interior, its the big three: Interior, performance and visuals. Personally i keep changing my mind about flatarch vs VT kit. I think im gonna go for Tints, de-wiper, ibiza + laguna splitter, VT kit, refurb wheels anthrite, new tyres and then mabey dress up the engine a tad.  At least thats where im up to on the list so far ^_^
