yup definately just get rid of the wiper mate, just need a grommit to fill the hole left behind. Just lowering a car makes such a difference to the look of the car, drop it more at the front, remember if you ain't scrubbing you ain't dubbing :D

I sorted the banging problem today :D !
basically when tightening the top bolt on the suspension the socket we used to tighten it was not deep enough, however me and my dad went and bought a deeper socket and it is now properly tightend and the banging noise has gone down dramtically!
Didnt get to lower the front any more becuase typicaly weather it started to chuck it down with rain, so hopefully over the weekend a bit more progress wil be made! :?: :?:
