Yes mate, i couldn't be happier with mine! Can't stop smiling as i throw her into corners, however, i don't up swerving to avoid potholes and going 5mph over speed bumps.

Massively recommended  :happy2:

May I ask how much you spent on the kit? Definitely something worth considering soon on mine  :smiley:

I have a family member that works at Febi UK so i went through them to get the kit...£475 delivered

I wanted to try get involved in group buy on here but after asking him where he thought i should get them i found out the company is actually called Febi BILSTEIN haha...just one of them lucky things  :grin:

I think some of the cheapest i've seen are on balancemotorsport, around £620 if i remember rightly...in my eyes still very much worth. Although, at that price you could start to consider a decent set of coilovers, all depends what you want from your kit i suppose dude.

Also, for anybody wondering this is how she stands now....the arches are begging for 18's but part of me likes the idea of the standard wheel....any input here is welcome  :happy2:

Ye, its the little things that keep the modding addiction at bay for a while   

I think thats it for the aesthetic mods at the moment though, i want to go strictly mechanical for a while now. Either brakes or transmission, i hope  :wink:
