Thanks guys for the comments:-) I pretty happy how its taking shape. The koni's and Eibachs have made an incredible difference on the handling side, but I did have problems with rubbing on the front arches.
I trimmed the sticking out bit thats visible where the arch meets the bumper and that cured rubbing when driving over bumpy roads in a straight line, but I still have a slight rub sometimes when on full lock going round a corner with more than 1 person in the car. The eibachs are pretty low at the front.
