Obviously do it the same colour as the car

,
Pay Halfords a visit to find the right paint. You'll need to look under the bonnet for the exact paint you need.
I want to do this aswell, but it somehow seems a bad idea to do it in the winter as I dont have a garage.

Thought Id dig this post up instead of creating one from scratch.. I dont know why...
Anyways... I cant find anyone to lower my car cheaper than £100.
What do you think is £100 about right?
He said its £100 whether he changes just the springs or springs & shocks...
Thanks!

What sort of problems did you some across?
After lowering you may need your wheel aligned & your camber done.
ps. what size wheels do you have?

^ Cheers mate. I dont think I'll find it cheaper so I guess I'll get that done in a month or so. The plan was to get it done by the end of Feb but I got my wallet cleaned out yesterday.
