Can i leave it like this?
« on: 28 April 2012, 11:18 »
Thanks to another forum member i acquired some used spax shocks and springs, now the front ones came with lowered springs (-40mm) and the rears with standard springs, i've fitted the fronts which give a nice drop but owing to the weather and a hundred other reasons i haven't got round to lowering the back ones and i'm beginning to really like the look of it with its nose on the floor and its not like the back is a danger to low flying aircraft or anything, it's got quite an aggressive look to it.
Is this ok or am i just being a lazy tw*t?.

To me that would look really silly.

Like a saxo or 106 that some chavy bam has tried to to lower by buying a lowering kit and realising the kits only got front springs and that theres a lowering torsion bar at the rear, finds thats seized so leaves it looking like a wedge of chease.   :cool:
