Wow, done quicker than I thought. Good news! The coilovers have full camber adjustment which I didn't realise. This made me very happy! What also made me happy was the guy saying "That car is ridiculously clean underneath"
Only down side is that it needs a full exhaust. It isn't connected at all  No monies means it'll have to wait. It sounds like a tank!
Now, this needs winding down a little bit more as it needed raising just to get it off the ramp.
Photo time!
And my new sticker as I daren't go above 40mph

Right, for people saying it isnt low, the photos do not do it justice. They also still have to settle.
Unfortunately I've already knocked the exhaust off two mounts
The ride is shocking, it's just completely solid.
Next, for temporary purposes I'm fitting 20mm spacers on the back and 10mm spacers on the front. We also discovered today that the coilovers allow camber adjustment so there'll be some camber to come and MAYBE a little lower
Next couple of months, the current steels are being sand blasted, banded and painted.

Am I being stupid? RR? lol
On another note, people have been questioning the ride height. As said, it's lower than it looks.
Bad times. Since the exhaust is now completely un attached to the manifold, the car seems to struggle to start. Is that possible or is it complete coincidence/bollocks? lol
