Default How low is this?

This is mine:



And shortly, I want to aim for this:



I know what the wheels are! But thats it.

How low do you think this is?

Looks like, this guy is half way there...

I'd have a go and say at least 50mm. My old bugeye was lowered 40mm and my current one 35mm and neither are as low as the one you have posted.

How much have you lowered yours by?

For some reason, your car just looks lower than standard?
Have you got a splitter on the front and rear? maybe it's that

Yeah, splitters on both. maybe thats why.
The picture angle is awful and with it being black.... might also add to it, I guess.

Managed to find most of the bits to convert mine to the ideal look. Both spoilers are coming off, in favour of a discreet boot lip. then, start saving for the rims...
