(S) getting there (lowered)

well she is finally getting there now got me wheels on and now lowered front grill sprayed and behind the number plate had been sprayed next on list is strut brace then get a bit more power out of her springs still need to settle on but you get the idea . o and a custom filter on her at mo

Looking nice so far mate, what wheels you got on, and what springs you use to lower it?

team dymacis pro race 1.2 205 40 17
its on pi 40mm drop
and i know some people dont like them but they are very stiff witch is great in the corners i love them there great if your not fussed about comfy ride lol

By "some people" if your going by forum threads about it, then its me lol. They do my head in, i wish i'd have gotten Eibachs on mine. However, i cant complain about the increase in handling, body roll is all but gone

Also, next thing you should do: colour code the handles, and get rid of those rubbing strips, they dont look good, and they dont protect the car either......they are useless.

oo lol yeah i would agree with the side strips and i am planning to spray handles after cam and re-map

yeah i does handle a lot better i love it never been bothered about ride comfy had a 106 rallye before this so its still better than that lol

Looks nice mate.

Yeah me and Mark are the main offenders with the Pi's lol

I like mine

Why are your handles not colour coded already :S

lol all in due time got plenty more to do to her yet but going hoilday with missus soon so i gotta wait till after that then handles side strips rear end back out again new exhusts and cams

How would you colour code the handles and mirrors, just paint them?

Its best to get them properly sprayed up.

Rich

yup i know a bloke with a body shop so ill ask him should not cost to much

looks nice..........doesnt actually look that low tho considering you say its got a 40mm drop on it

when wer those pics taken after its settled in? as it looks like it still needs lowering.

I've noticed on my Active the non-coloured handles and mirrors are black but rough texture, or rougher than the body of the car, if I got them sprayed would they be metallic black but still textured? Or completely smooth like the body?

Thanks

Poor springs...they only say a drop of between 25-40mm so it may only be a 25mm drop he has got.
