Sooooooooo I got a taster of what it's like for lowered cars, a couple of days ago.

We were in Manchester and I went into the Multistorey car park that's part of the massive Mall in the city Center? Forgot it's name...

Those ramps are a HAZARD! lol. Because of my LOOOOOOOOOOONG wheelbase.. stuff like that is death to me.

All the way up I was taking them wide and diagonal, so managed not to scrape once.

Coming down, however, was a different story Sad On of them gave me this niiiiiiiice lllllllloooooooooonnnng scrape.. I was wincing like hell. I'm gunna have to get the car checked out now too.. it makes a gurgling noise whilst idling.. (noise from around the drivers area.. only hear it when my door is open though... so yeah, I won't open my door, rofl)


But yeah.. all in all, you gotta love a little bit of scrape? :p

Conclusion: I think this means I HAVE to go wiv Air-Ride.. coilies would mean I'd just beach myself on all the damned speed bumps etc.. scratch

Get a custom stainless exhaust tucked up tight underneath, then just drag it over !!!!

My subframes got a nice shiney finish from all the scraping Wink

Big, it only hit me on the way to work after posting my last message.. you got a long wheelbase too, rofl.. Oops!

Nath... wasn't it 3 fingers? :p

He wouldn't get as far as the speed bumps.. they had those nasty speedbumps first... the bolt on ones that are only half the depth of a wheel.. horrid things.. should be burnt
