40mm Drop Advise

[RFC84]

Just wondering what a 30mm or 40mm drop is like over speedhumps.

Ive got hundreds round my end and my last car, a mk3, was a nightmare!
Admittedly it was dropped to the bottom on coilovers but looked the nuts 
BUT i got fed up of driving it.

Best option might be to leave it standard but a small drop makes all the difference imo.

Any pics would be appreciated aswell. Cheers

my small bumper mk2's splitter rubs when i park my nose over kerbs, badly rubs, bends it the wrong way, not even new cars do that, so 40mm drop on a mk2 is gonna be worse than a new car.

im yet to hit my MK2 on speedbumps, thats a bigbumper with the chin spoiler, dropped 40mm.

it does catch over curbs whilst parking though.

So if your careful parking its fine? Does your exhaust catch the bumps at all?

That was the main thing i was worried about.

iv got the eibach pro's on boge turbos and the drops around 35-40
its a 90'spec and sometimes catches things.but only speedbumps when you dont slow down enough.
40 is the perfect fdrop to get the wishbones level

Mines dropped 60mm (see my sig) and I catch the chin all over the place but that's ok, exhaust only on evil speedhumps.

Thinking of getting mine done 40mm but 60 looks superb!

I guess that pic doesn't really show how low it is. How about this one?
