Before you go spending shed loads of cash on parts, just get a full fast road suspension geometry set up done, you will not believe how much better the car will feel, the difference it makes is amazing it totally transforms the car.

Well said above, but if you want to throw some money at it before the set-up, think about uprating the rear ARB, anti lift kit and solid drop links all round. This will make a massive difference when set up with good geometry.
Don't forget tyres as well a decent set makes all the difference

Is there any companies that offer this? Ideally local to the midlands?
