Cheers mate.

Don't think I could go lower and keep a decent comfort level.

It's running eibach pros at the moment.

Although the pics were taken after the changing the wheels so the car was jacked up has settled more since.

Got my monzas on ebay at the moment for sale

Looks very good. Like the wheel choice, 19's look great, but how do you find the rubber band tyres in terms of comfort?
Genuine bumper looks like such a better fit, isn't it a shame manufacturers of copy parts can't copy properly!

Hi thanks for the comments.

really surprised by the 19s pretty much no difference in comfort compared to my 18s.

one thing though you can defiantly tell the difference in weight compared to my 18 inch Monza's  (but I was expecting that )

Yeah massive difference in bumpers the replica one was a popular brand but I found it to be nothing like the size and fit of a genuine one.

Decat time.

Thought I'd finish of my miltek catback with the miltek big bore downpipe.
Will be fitted tommorow hopefully.

Purchased from road runner motosport great service.

Yeah hopefully the catback made 0 difference to sound so this might be different.

Think most of the difference is in the cat anyway (Hopefully)

Sounds good.

Hopefully works out will find out tommorow

Keep reading about it some people say there's no difference some say there is.

Hopefully there is looking at the difference compared to standard.

Miltek down pipe fitted sounds great not a lot  difference to the note (unless your stood at the back)

But a nice turbo sound when changing gear etc.
