Thanks for all the comments people

I think it sits nice for me and hope you all think same. I ordered some 100mm rear springs last night but i don't think i'll need them now with me taking adjuster out on rear. I don't think it can go any lower I'm also getting tracking done wednesday.

The ride quality is very, very bumpy My estate isn't that bad and the drive to work and back is ok regarding bumps and potholes so i'll be fine i think,i'll get used to it

Mark the rear lights are sprayed with proper red tint light spray,i masked the reflector up and sprayed the rest but you have to be careful not to spray to much over indicator because this needs to still flash orange

My future plans for the car are :

Laguna splitter
GM wind deflectors
Chrome Strutbrace
Omp rear strutbrace
Chrome bonnet lifters
New amp for sub
HIDs
Spray roof pillars and roof lining matt black
Few interior bits to be sprayed
Battery bag
K&N air filter
& the boot and bonnet need respraying with them being abit bubbly in places

Let me know if there's anything else you think i should do

Gotta agree I think it sits perfect how it is Dan Looks about 80-90ish?

Little tip about bonnet lifters though, don't bother with them mate. They never fit right and will end up making your bonnet sit all out of alignment. I think they actually bent mine a bit Rest of the plans sound great though!

Cheers Shaun!

Oh right,i'll gee it a miss then lol,i'm still not sure about MHW rears though.

Another question Shaun,on the rear,inside of the arches,there's two bolts very close to the tyres but the clearance is good. Have you kept yours in or have you bonded your arches on? I don't want them digging into the tyres

Cheers mate

I personally would keep the red rear lights you have and not get MHWs.
