Soo I finally lowered it today, what a bloody game that was!! Only took me 5 hours  :whistle:. Mostly due to my own f**k ups lol.

Here's how it sat when I first put them on

 




Drove it down the road and back. And it sounded horrible!! Knocking noises, and metal on metal knocks and bangs. I thort I'd killed my car lol. So parked it back up and found that I'd missed two spacers out of the rear coilovers  :embarrassed:. Soo had to take the rears off again and rebuild them with that in, drove it down the road again, the back was lovely now, but still MAJOR knocking from the front. So parked up again, lifted the bonnet, I forgot to tighten the top mounts  :embarrassed:  so did them out and now it drives smooth. Can't believe I made soo many rookie mistakes. Just a bad day I quess.

Here's how it's sitting now





I prefer it lower but it's a daily so need to save my back lol
