Same springs I've got on mine. Mine settled at the front about another 5mm.

You think it drives much different? Mine feels pretty standard still.

Much better

Later rear lights with the smoked indicators would make a big difference too imo, instead of the random frosted effect they put on the early ones.

Yeah i think they drive much better round bends, wasnt to bad on bad roads with lots of pot holes, but speed humps i have noticed the difference

Daveskater im not that fussed about the rear light, the later rear lights are just to expensive.

Thanks for the comments everyone

rear lights go for around £100 a pair new so quite costly for something if you not too fussed about it, could keep an eye on these though

I could spend the money on those lights, but at the end of the day it could be money towards either a dtuk tuning box, HID kit or a centre armrest.
