GMballistic Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Very nice Zed and I do prefer the alloys now in the darker colour. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tatooandy67 Posted March 16, 2014 Author Share Posted March 16, 2014 Very nice Zed and I do prefer the alloys now in the darker colour. Thank you for your comment I think darker alloys against a lighter colour car looks better it's good that I'm not the only one thinks so. I wanted to get them done sooner rather than later as I had a mishap with a kerb not long after taking delivery but alls we'll that ends well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tatooandy67 Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) Nice! What spacer size and type of springs you going for? 25mm all around and eibachs? After many questions and looking at many posts on here and a trip to see Mitz at CS I've decided to go 25F 20R with the spacers and lowering 30F 25R so eibach spacers for definite and am almost certain for ARK GTS springs wanted to go lower with springs but will see how I get on as it's my daily driver and if I find I can live with lower I'll look into coil overs .....would really like to have it slammed but will have to see how I get on with the pitiful state of our roads Edited March 23, 2014 by tatooandy67 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottyZ Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Quick update......... Booked in 15 April with CS to get lowering springs and spacers....can't wait, Big thanks to Mitz at CS for being so helpful Big thanks to Simon for popping in to show his beautiful twilight 370 :) No problem Andy. Good to meet you at CS. Lowering springs and spacers transform the look of the car. Loads of people pass comment on how planted the car looks once lowered and spaced out.

tatooandy67 Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 So the time finally came for my appointment at CS to get my next mod completed Had lowering springs fitted ARK GT-F which have given me a drop of F30mm R25mm and also had fitted Eibach spacers F25mm R20mm, nothing extreme but I think enough to close the gap between the arch and the tyre Also Mitz being the resourceful chap he is arranged at very short notice for my rear windows to be tinted while I was there I'm extremely pleased with both the looks and quality of the mods completed by the team at CS and would like to say thank you very much Mitz & co you really do go above and beyond in the fantastic service you provide, look forward to our next meeting which hopefully (funds permitting) will be soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
