Updates To My T-sport

[TomF]

Ok Finally got round to fitting my lowering springs last night. Here's some pics.

Glad to report no rubbing or anything or weird noises.

Also in the pics are my new clear clusters.

Next Up is smoking those, and getting a LHD reverse light, which in theory will replace my red fog...yes? On that note, any ideas where I can get one.

Also, as you can see in my clusters, on the left side, there is a red plastic bit for a fog light, but I don't need that, obviously, anyway of dis-assembling the cluster to remove that?

Wheel off, and bolts holding on mounts etc removed

Shock absorber removed

Final Result.

Looks much better mate!

Envy should be able to supply you with the clear lense to replace your foglight. Failing that try yaristpot on the site.

Looking good mate Love the blaxk alloys really suits the car

jerry!!

[daz364]

have you lowered it on 17s or 16s

[Demonic Angel]

Lookin' good!

I'm not too keen on black alloys on a black car myself, just looks too "black" for my liking, but as long as you're happy mate then thats all that matters!

Looks nice - yeah envy have the clear rear lens - think I saw one in their cabinete at JAE

Same here but I think the lighter rim around the edges makes all the difference, I think it looks brilliant

[SouT16]

The 17's Stuff the arches!!!!

Looks ace

With regards to the 2nd reverse light, I just ran some wire under the boot floor for it with an inline fuse (just incase) and had no problems.

When i tried the same for the Fogs it kept blowing fuses but you have the Bumper recessed fogs so no problem anyway.

What springs are you using???

Hows the handling feel through the twisties???

Lookin good though

check first post dude, said no rubbing noises problems etc

[TomF]

PI Lowering Springs. dropped it 35mm. Cost me £116.

Just to clarify, there is absolutely no rubbing, full lock is achieved with no rubbing, but I haven't tried passengers yet :D

[knightrider]

ahh well with passengers it will probably rub

[cmarshall]

If you took the bump strips off your car it would finish it off. I had them on mine and they just pulled straight off, there only held on with sticky back foam.

[mjreid]

looks good, i like the rear clusters, Where did you per chase them from?

Noticed an improvement in the handling?

I have been looking at doing this, but my dad seems to think the paintwork underneath will look messy and won't be shiny and whatnot.

The Clusters are from www.dcp-shop.co.uk

I thought it to, but i went ahead and did it, all that was under there was a bit of dirt, give it a polish and u would never know, give it a go.
