Hello Zoners,

Just fitted my front spoiler.... there is a gap of 85mm to the road.

I need to be at 100mm to be legal so will refit some springs in future, but was wondering if anyone else drives their cars that low?

Cheers
George

Not measured but the front of mine is currently way under 85mm driven daily.

Raising it soon as I can't handle the female attention/Facebook likez

I guess you're in Australia?

Mine is a bit lower than yours, I don't drive it daily tho, but I avoid FOD in the road to save cracking the Splitter/Sump/Rack

Why don't you get adjustable coilover so that you can run the car at the height you want then buzz it up to 100mm for your inspection
