Finally decided to get lowered springs for the car. I know coilovers is the better option according to some members but im contented with springs as coilovers are not a financially viable option at this stage and couldnt wait any longer. Im well aware of the risks but most people on here with lowered springs have not had any trouble so far,i guess time will tell :)

Love the tail lights man, works really well with the silver. Very tasteful mods you've got going on there ;)

Thankyou guys,i dont think theres any need to have the front sway bar now,happy with handling also getting a lot of PM's about my tail lights,but unfortunatly that seller dosent seem to have them anymore :(

I kept my OEM springs just in case something happens,also i think the clearance has to be 100mm from lowest point of the car??
I found a tin which was excatly 100mm in height,put it under those flaps at the front of the car,and had about 5 mm to spare.

Looks great Glen. Lowering your car adds a great touch.

When I had mine lowered I was checking underneath the cross member (just in front of the CAT where the exhaust goes up to the engine).

This being the critical spot for country drivers where roads/driveways can have a reasonable camber such that the centre of the car would scrape. :-)
