 Re: lowered
clammy I got everything done in one go so I dont know how much each front guard is worth as they were reshaped quite a bit from the standard shape

Clammy - I paid $250 from memory for the front of the guards to be trimmed, the inner lips rolled and hand pumped and then resprayed.

 Re: lowered
hope you got the front of your front guards cut out a bit, i am having the problem now that because the wheels are big, they hit the guard when you turn.... if you have had this done, could you PM me with around about how much you paid for it?
cheers

 Re: lowered
so looking at the excellent ballast in the rear (battery and fuel girl)
do you get a charge out of her
how many smiles to your gallon?
I am having a ride height problem as well
15" all round but I need low profiles but with the coilovers I need 185/45/15 orthereabouts, but no wider.

 Re: lowered
trying to get the correct ride height, I think the front is about right but I think I need to raise the rear by about 10mm(thats my better half in the rear to compensate a tank of fuel and battery, as there not in yet)

 Re: lowered
yea the 17's make it look lower just because the gap between the tyre and the guard as for lowering it, it only has 30mm lowering blocks in the back and I also took the helper leaf out of the rear cut it 70mm either side of the locater bolt and then reinstalled it on top of the leafs, and I dont know how much the front is lowered as I have coilovers in

 Re: lowered
Does the helper spring flatten the spring out at all? Maybe removing it will give you the 10mm you are after?
