It is possible, although hacking bits off your OE springs with a hacksaw would completely f**k the handling & be a bit dangerous!!!  :grin:   :wink:

You can get some quality Eibach springs for about £110 off ebay, so I'd save up, if it were me. :smiley:

cheers for  that...you've also answered (hopefully) my other question in that all i need for the lowering is some new springs...
