I need to lower mine too, I didn't realize the gap difference.

Paul c · Feb 23rd, 2008, 04:24 PM

Ive JUST lowered mine with Eibach springs( bought from Lohen....thanks Andre ) see the pics! The ride is firmer but i rekon it looks SO much better with no 4x4 massive gap between wheel and arch now.

How much are the Eibachs?

Paul c · Mar 8th, 2008, 09:47 PM

Call Andre at Lohen see if they are doin any deals mate

it looks so much better when lowered...but still that lip will be a problem surely! i might just not get the aero kit and lower it then....the arches are worse than the lack of the kit imo

Paul c · Mar 23rd, 2008, 08:05 AM

Ive only caught the lip a few times ........its still on there!!!!!!!!!!!!
