Hmmm...have split opinions on air bags, yes they look awesome when parked up but then its back to standard height when driving which i think is pretty gay lol. Its all about rolling hard and low!

Am planning on setting the preload of all springs rediculously hard and slamming it hellaflush style this week

Seats + drivers rail should be here tuesday or wednesday! Cant wait!! Like christmas all over again!! Although i still dont know what to do about passenger seat rail lol

i have to agree with trails that it's no different to anyone elses on here now

if it was me i would have left the sport bonnet on and rear spoiler off and left the side lights yellow and put your oil cooler where the front grill sits and slam it to the floor

going off your clio i thought you were going to bring something new and different to the look of the scooby but you have ended up with it looking like all the rest

iv'e been following this thread for awhile and thought it was great what you were doing apart from the hose for the cooler out side the bumper and the stickers on the fog lol,

just hope you get back on track and get it looking different again, so keep up the good work

a mate of mine rob has done a s4 and a passat on airride both of which u could roll low no problems then sit it on the sills when parked how ever the s4 was like a boat to drive but the passat does handle well but now got him looking looking at fast cars again

Very productive day today, been out working on bits for the car since 10 this morning

Finished smoothing the splitter, and got a couple of coats of primer on it, should be ready for a coat of blue tommorow Then going to scrapyard to find a big black plastic splitter to bolt to the bottom of it to make it even lower

And biggest joy of all.....got coilovers unseized! However didnt have time to adjust them properly yet, still bloody stiff to move, requires a hammer to turn the body lol! But at least ive got them moving at last

Also saw that the inside edges of front tyres are worn a hell of a lot so adjusted the camber....but gone rather too far and now got positive camber :/ Set camber bolts to neutral and going to just adjust them on top mounts from now on

looks good,

imo looked better with the sport bonnet and no spoiler, (gunna do it on my turbo, bit of sleeper fun)

liked the idea of the bozu style, but you'd have to go full on with it not just bits and pieces.

Also need to go and get another black lip splitter to fit on the bottom to get it really low

And tried everythig to unseize the coilovers couple of nights ago, had them in a vice but nothing would unseize them. Got one undone eventually, but no use as the other one just wont budge!

Im not in a rush to sell the cage, if i dont get offered what i want then ill keep it Going to spray it glitter silver to match the seats if i keep it

Splitter will look really good when fitted, and most importantly it will make the front a lot lower

Also looking for a pair of front coilovers if anyone knows of any???? Long shot lol

To be honest i dont know, bought them over internet in the end. Advert didnt say.....so id like to think they're real!

They were either expensive fakes, or cheap real ones! Either way they look awesome!

Just been on the phone to Jap performance parts again, they've got 2 front Tein coilvoers but want £300 for them.....Am i right in thinking that the Tein's dont lower that much?? And i think £300 is a bit much for 2 coilovers!

Wing + bonnet possibly for sale
Brakes possibly for sale
Rollcage for sale!
