Front would look good that long, but totally loose the ability to be able to drive it! at 70mm the monifold touched low raised roads, and thats lower then 70mm on that pic, rest of the plans look good, take it your not selling now then?

what litre was your bronc yellow one?
how much clearance to the floor did you have when the front was -70mm?

mines only a 1.0 12v so the down pipe is only going to be small and im guessing higher up?

if its still going to be very low then il just have to take it about 70mm like your old one..

and no not thinking about selling anytime soon, wasnt realy tempted before just seeing how much it would be worth tbh, but keeping it for a little longer now

i never really looked at it to work out the distance but if you go as low as the pic u really struggle to get any sort of full lock, 70-80 max at the front id say.

ps. 1.6 sport

thats probly about 80mm on the fronts, as yours was 70mm and the arch was just above the tyre, and 80mm and the arch is just below the tyre...

probly take it about 70/75mm

also going to spray all my trim gloss black, and get some vauxhall rear mudflaps

Bumpers you mask the bottom half off

Arches are held on by little bolts, but be gentle when taking them off as they are fragile fuckers.
