Now Lowered, Calipers Painted, New Tyres, Discs & Pads Fitted
Just lowered my MX5 using PI 30mm springs, also painted the calipers Silver and fitted new discs and pads and 4 new tyres, really happy with the result and drives really well.
Also fitted a new stick on number plate as the last one went wrong!!
Hope you like the photos!

Definitely not for sale, my 7 year old son would not be happy if i sold it!
I keep it in the showroom when i'm not using it, had 3 people in the last week asking if it's for sale!

Looks great. Are you still on standard dampers? How did you get on fitting the numberplate? Mine kept creasing so much so in the end, had to put it at the end of the bonnet

Hi Wilbo,
Yeah still on the standard dampers but it drives really well.
I got the sign writers to make and fit the number plate, they knew what they were doing so it was perfect, better than when I done the last one myself!!

Great idea, may have to get some quotes to do that tomorrow as there was no way I could do it without getting creases!

Looking great, Bodie
Did the alignment get checked/sorted after lowering, as well?

Hi Leemarb,
I went straight over the number plate holes, you can see them if you look for them, but i'm happy with the result.

Hi VO5Jo
Thanks for your comments  i'm really happy with it now!
I got the alignment and tracking checked after it was lowered and it was adjusted where needed.
