Thanks :) I'm debating going lower with the car, possibly coilovers as work have made a new entrance to the carpark with no huge hump or holes! Just don't want to make it uncomfortable to drive. Wouldn't mind a set of leathers too for it aswell!

Were they the pro kit? The pro kit doesnt seem to lower these at all.

Sportlines or H&Rs definitely lower these if you dont want to compromise comfort!

Thanks! Trying to get the pics onto my iPad of the exhaust that was put on today. Also the hands free kit turned up today so I'll fit that tomorrow.
