    Fitted lowering kit today...

    ... went really well especially the rear which was unbelievably easy. However, the car has lowered abit, but not 40mm. The handling is ALOT firmer which is nice :funk: But does it take a while for the springs to bed in properly to the correct lowering? Shocks and springs fitted btw. Cheers

    Lowering my FR+

    I am thinking of lowering my FR+ somewhere between 30 and 40mm but i do not want the ride to be affected, it's already quite firm but i wouldn't want it any hard due to the poor conditions of the roads where i live and my dodgy back. What setups can you guys recommend or should i just leave it...
