hi that venom motorsport has just what a want thank you

FK high tech lowering springs
front 70mm - rear 50mm only £79.22

for a 899cc cinquecento (not sporting)
 
remember though with a drop of that difference you will really want to get new shocks as yo NEED the stiffer rebound on them and your standards will wear out very quickly. youll also need to cut the bump stops down.

well i did it on my car and the springs are standard i just cut a coil at a time with an angle grinder untill i got the ride hight i wanted but ull have to get some dampers to aquire this otherwise your springs ull fall out over bumps and the mot test bay floor lol, you have to cut them form one end only tho and i didnt bother with the flats on the top mine sit just fine tbh and theres not another cinq around wear i live as low :) ow anmd if you cant get the right dampers just cut and weld your originalls mate what i did cuz my car is just too low and would cost lots for new dampers lol but the front ones i did aswell there more tricky you have to bye them or they wont be string enuf :)
you can try it if ya want but make sure you weld up the end of the cut or theyll shatter lol

mines a 94 cing none sporting with all in matt black and white bonnet and wheels soon and filler cap :) induction filter and 1.2 ecu from a fiat punto but iv got the wiring loom off it lol starit through no cat and cherry bomb rear box centre exit with steel weels 100mm drop all round

This was -30mm on a sporting (with 14" wheels) which would be -50 on a 899

anything more is just impractical for the pothole strewn, speed bump world we live in today
