Nice n loooooooooooow would be sooooo much nicer without the big dent in the sill

haha the other side has an even bigger one, they let the whole car down :(

Should be picking up a front valver bumper tomorrow

Nooo you should keep the 8v!

In other news it's looking so nice now man!

Whats next? :)

agreed! leave the 8v bumper, maybe change the splitter and shortened recess or something. and get them sills repaired :p

I would keep the 8v bumper, but i pumped all my tyres up and it raised the front up so much, and my coilovers are as low as they could possibly go, with no helpers or bumpstops... Just hate the look of my splitter being like 10 inches off the ground :(

Picked the bumper up this morning, will get it on later on and try and get some pictures :)

Sill looks like you got stuck on a speedbump :p

Looks awesome with the notch done now man :) apart from the said sill :( haha

Also a standard valver bumper is higher up than the 8v bumper :/

Really, I thought 16v was lower?

Also Andy how does it differ with the bumstops removed, like how much lower and how does it effect the ride?

Swear down it's higher...swapped my bro's 8v bumper to his 16v and it looked muchhh higher!

If you look at the splitter it's much bigger on the 8v than the 16v too ;d

Looking good bud.

What camera setup you using?

the sill? That was a jack slip and it slid onto that bit and started bending it upwards :(

Cheeers, and yeah hopefully i'll get the sill sorted one day..

And i'm not really sure, i'm about to fit the 16v bumper so i'll see.

I did notice the size in the splitter, dunno whether you can fit an 8v splitter on 16v bumper?...

Also Andy how does it differ with the bumstops removed, like how much lower and how does it effect the ride?

Uhm i dont really notice it being much bumpier than having them cut in half, although you do hearing it bottoming out over bumps quite a lot haha

Looking good bud.

What camera setup you using?

Thanks man.

Using a Canon 500D with Canon 50mm 1.8 and a Sigma 17-70mm 2.8-4

Car's looking top notch...

If you'll pardon the pun.

What degree of camber you running? You have inspired me to run camber again also how much you pay for your shim? I have found them for £17. Last time i just used a couple of washers lmaoo

Hah legend i had two washers on each bottem bolt

Hah legend i had two washers on each bottem bolt

haha i'm running 2 on the left and one on the right, seems to be stopping the tyres wearing down.

Personally think it needs less rear end camber and the 8v bumper again

I like the camber how it is and it lets me go as low as it is without rubbing, and maybe the 8v bumper may come back on, might see about smoothing the recess on it whilst its off...
