Re: Some updated pics of my 100HP

i know, but it seems to be slowly turning into a red car, what with the calipers,springs,badges and soon hoses

Yeah, good isn't it surely it is better sticking with a theme, then having a mix and match of colours

Have you a before and after suspension profile shot?

I do have a side pic in my gallery:

Definitely sits lower.

Yep, like all the Pandas I have seen so far - not sure if just specific to the 100HP or the other variants as well.

Stu the missing paint is like a proper hot hatch (205 gti slam panels were unpainted )

How much is it lowered by? Does this invalidate the warranty? Looks really cool I like them a lot!

100HP is lowered around 25mm compared to standard.

I presumed these Cobras were the same, but looks more like 30 to 35mm possibly :chin:

It will only invalidate the warranty with regards to anything directly affected by the springs. I have had plenty of warranty work done in the past on 'modded' cars.

EDIT now confirmed, Cobra drop the Panda 100HP a further 25mm from standard - so is that a 50mm drop based on non-100HP models? I will confirm....

sweet, if you get anything organised with evo mag, give me a shout!

how much was it for the spring set? and is it purely springs or are there different shocks too?

Re: Some updated pics of my 100HP

Evo are doing the road test on Thursday, I will do a proper thread about that once the test is done

As for the springs, I know the retail price is around £145 BUT currently trying to sort out a discount with Cobra, once we know the Evo results. I should also be able to negotiate bulk fitting at the place Evo used, maybe

It is basically the springs on standard shocks.
