You must have some craters in your road, The sri on my drive has the same kit and when i drove it when it was being picked up it didnt touch the floor at all, and its on 16's lowered 40. Got eaten by the driveway though

Edit: Where is the Grill part of the bumper?

There should be a bit going across the top where the upper grill should be, where you can attach the mesh to.

ud really need at least 17 inch wheels to carry that kit off, i bought the front for my old white daily car until i set it up against it and realised that it would be constantly scrubbing the road. dcked on 17s and couldnt be arsed so i sold it..

so i got set aside for a week time to chill think bout what to do with the kit and help a mate. after doing his car which is a micra k10 (the old one) and making a clio kit fit i decided im going to cut my kit up a small bit make it tiny bit higher and maybe modify it... just so it aint the same as everyone else that has it... SORRY BOUT THE ESSAY lol
