Has anyone got any pics (front and side pics) of a saloon (preferrably one that's lowered) with a p1 front lip spoiler on?

I don't have any pictures, but as a P1 owner I suggest you think twice before fitting the front lip to a lowered car, because it constantly catches on speed bumps, parking ramps etc as it is. On a lowered car it would probably just get torn off. On day 1.

How much further does it decrease the ground clearance when fitted to a MY00 front bumper then?

Without measuring, a guy a work is parked next to me (MY99) and looking at it, I'd say a good 4 inches.

OK - so it''s not a saloon but...



PTMW! is slightly lowered over standard (20-25mm? Roughly the drop you get with Eibachs) I haven't *yet* hit a speed hump, but am very careful abour not parking head on to a kerb

Its pretty low you know!



from the side



A real pain on sleeping policemen too.

Note as well as the extra drop by the lip the suspension on the P1 is also lowered by 25mm or there abouts at the front. So this means you end up with about 2inch less ground clearance at the front. Just watch it when you park face on to a kerb!

Had forgot to mention that PTMW! sits at about the same height as a P1

Nice slope
