yeah thats a good idea! 60 mm all round :rolleyes: .... NOT!

imo 40mm will sufficient,its how low im going,plus once they settle and you have another person in the car with you they soon look more like 60 anyways.

id go 40/45mm (y)

:D aye, going to lower it 40/45 when weather gets better (Fitting myself)

but now, im going to a huge scrappy on wednesday and find me a sporting bumper and do the lil conversion for mesh on it :D and then circle out a hoel for cold air feed. (its has katrillionz of punto's :D) Simpsons garage.

Yup am doing that too. I may just smooth rub strips and de-grill it too but im leaving my fogs in at least. Im not sure as what to do with the bottom of my front bumper. I may not do a splitter on the front, as i would need to do something to the back and as far as i know im just getting a smooth tailgate, smoothing the the rear bumper and making a recess for the number plate in the back bumper also.
 
remember if you have fogs in the bumper then they have to be connected and working, if they not connected and working then youre not really allowed them there.

bumpers sound good too (y)

got some little white "ABARTH" decals to go on aswell (kinda like where names like brembo go) but am unsure whether to put them on or not :confused:

charlie
 
cheers buddy (y)

i was thinking about it, am going to put them on cause theyll be easy to take off if it dont look right, but gotta wait for the paint to harden off before i start rubbing decals onto them
