Looks good, what paint did you use? Need to do mine.

Yeah definitely needs a drop, just lowered mine on Eibach springs, really transforms it, which shocks/springs you gonna use?

Are those Lexus style rear lights?

Your headlights need tackling too, just done mine and really makes a difference to the look, less scruffy and unloved looking now😘.

Cheers Sana. It's Halfords red engine heat paint. Had the black on my impreza ones and red on the intercooler, lasted ages on they're. Like a test haha so thought why not. Really pleased with it. About £7.49 for a small tin. Can't remember how much the spray was! 

I'm hoping these Compressor shocks n lowering springs will fit I've bought 2nd hand. Should do really it's the same car👍I read your thread and looks ace on yours bud 

Yes they are Lexus Style. When my dad had the car years ago I bought him them for Xmas. I'm still not sure with them even though all bulbs are now Led's. Looks brill at night to be fair! 

Your right over the headlights mate. Terrible. I've got the Compressor front end to put on and one headlight. Just need the another one. When I bought the Bumper n Spliter i forgot our lights don't fit. Dosey ****!!!! More money

Thanks! I only got these shock n springs as they were cheap for now. Eventually I would like to swap the engine and gear box etc, but thats in years to come. 

Loving the sounds of you's and your mates set ups. I'd love to afford that kind of stuff👍

Cars going in Saturday for the below to be fitted by my mate at his garage in Hyde! 

All the parts came off a Compressor so I'm hoping they fit. Should do, because the cars body is really the same.

Give them a good clean up and I can't see why they would fit and you should notice a difference in the way the handles on the road.

Car will look better as well with being lower.

Yep springs and shocks on! Also I had the front drop links from the compressor, so I swapped these over too. 

The drop links were alittle wider than mine so I thought why not, stick em on. 

The handling.....could tell straight away. Alot firmer in the ride, planted too. Drop links stiffened the steering up also. Not much because there not top of the range but it's an improvement. Very pleased. It's not as low as I expected, but they might need to settle abit (happened on my impreza after a few days). Over all another job done, ticked off the list.

I did quicky spray them ha ha. And repainted the calipers and disc hubs too. Had rust on them already.....Not anymore!
