This is how we do it.... (click me)

[croakey]

took it out for some quick location pics....

admitedly its filthy dirty, and taken on a camera phone (spur of the moment thing!)....

Just waiting to sort some annoying rubbing bracket in the front arch before we can go that tad bit lower... any help on this would be much appreciated!

Nice shots mate!

Looking good! Ask rash about cutting arches about, I need to do this too... my LCR splitter has taken a battering also...

i can see where its rubbing...seems to be a lumpy bit of arch trim just inside the arch sort of by the bumper join...

think i'm gunna take the wheel off, remove the arch trim, whack whatever the metal work its covering right in...then melt the plastic back in on itself

Its only on big bumps it rubs....in 90 odd miles tonight it rubbed 3 times....

...as for a leon cupra-r splitter, i aint sure how long it would last on mine!

thanks rash...any chance you got a pic of what you've done??

They are 17x9's on the rear running a 205/40/17 falken tyre...mucho strecho...yet no rubbage!


as for lower as soon as thats sorted i'll just wind the coilovers to max!...but you only run 7's up front, and mine are 8's with silly offsets so they wedge out a bit more

 

[rashcupra]

[croakey]
