lowering springs, apprantly you can get away 40mm lowering without fucking everything up or changing suspension. will look tight or morrrets, or or or, do what si_reading did, and get a front V grill and paint it red! I dunno

red_sxi, surely getting it colour coded wont effect selling it, it will look better so improve the sale.

I was thinking of Black V Grille, lowering maybe 30mm, morettes cost too much and look w4nk on a subtle car

It's well worth buying a full kit.

I think the SXI's have uprated suspension as standard but no lower. My mu's is a really hard ride for a standard Corsa. lovely

its handling of my suspension is good (firm not hard), it handles so much better around corners.

shouldnt look too low at the back red_sxi, the setup on a std corsa c, the back is higher then the front (or my vision is wankered)

it is higher at the back but if you put a rear apron on, it will look as thou the front is higher.
