Looking good. I think the silver mirrors work with the red. I have the same 17in alloys. They look great.

Apex do the 35mm spring, Eibach only do 25mm. I think I read somewhere that the back end doesn't lower much with springs because of the rear dampers, which are too rigid?... only way is coils for the rear.

really good mods btw, nice and subtle.

I guess that might be the reason why H&R makes 25/40 springs. In Clubber's thread there are pictures of Cupra lowered with those.

I guess the drop is measured from Sport with those spring manufacturer numbers. For FR the actual lowering is 5mm less and for Cupra 10mm less because of the already sportier suspension and lower ground clearance.

How easy is it to fit the Silver Mirrors? Do you replace the hole mirror casing or just the body colour part?

Which springs are they then? how much lowered, cost and where from? :)

Do you know where i can find h&r springs?
Looked on dc performance and cant find them for a 6j.

Im looking at doing mine very soon, so wanna find best solution :) for the back i may buy some diff dampers so it drops more,
