with the BC coilovers, did you leave them how they were straight out of the packet? or did you lower/raise them once they were on? looking better now than it was before. i should have my black RS's in a month or so :wink: im looking forward to them.

and how do you rate the ride quality with the pair too? as im going to go the BC's aswell

I love the coilovers. I lowered them from where they came out of the box. The ride for me is quite good. Ive got them set to 20 turns on front and rear so the ride is fairly firm but thats just the way that i like it.

So last week I got the carbon fibre grill from ultrex, and just yesterday I got myself a set of carbon fibre eyelids.
I kind of had a heart attack at first though, the guy i bought my car off must of had the bonnet protector or something and there were clips that sat right where the eyelids were meant to go!

Thankfully those clips only take the best part of 2 seconds to remove :)

so anyway, heres a few photos of them pre/during/post install.

ps. yes i know, i might have been a little over the top with the masking tape. :D
