I like my 5dr as its slightly more original than the attack of the clones. As for sourcing some post 97 bumpers I actually like the red & black theme?

saw a CDX 5dr outside Dominoes pizza last night, had the spoiler etc, looked really smart. though once again it had been abused would of offered him cash in hand to take his spoiler lol!

cheers, I really enjoyed doing it, I'd left it like 3 months due to my stuff being 200 miles away, but I bought it back down with me.

I've been tempted to lower it for ages, never really had the intell on the whole thing. I've always been worried about what I actually need to buy, what kind of money am I looking at to buy the stuff for the job? and how easy is it to do?

agree with MJ, lowering is a definite. costs depends whether you go for just springs or shocks and springs. springs start at about 60quid and complete kits with shocks and springs start at about 150. it can be done yourself, not a major job, really depends on your mechanical knowledge, mainly just undoing nuts and bolts and replacing the part. but it does completely change the handling and looks for the better.
