Re: Who owns this vrs?

Josh - No I haven't. Although the guy I bought the last set off (i've had two sets) was from that side of the country somewhere, and his was Silver too. May have been him.


@ Dwallis - yes it is lowered by 25mm on Eibach springs.

I will say this - it ruins the handling, you lose 10mpg, and you start warping brakes.

Looks good though I think.
