Bought these off a forum member nearly a year ago and I've been umming and aaring ever since weather to fit them! Was thinking about selling the car a few weeks back but decided against it so thought I'd jump back on and finish bits!

Liked the idea of camber plates up front and fully adjustable front and rear.
Fitted finally :
Now, I was pretty dubious as to weather they would make that much of a difference... Until I sat in the car and started to drive!
First impressions have been great!
Ride is much firmer. Steering for example feels like it did with sport mode on as standard and feels more planted.
NO crashing and clunky suspension like the FK springs I had on before which I didn't notice happened till it stopped with these on today!
Ride height may be a tad low. Drive home had no scrapes of rubs of any sort
but it looks a little lower (5-10mm) than the others I had on **and it's not at it's lowest setting!!**
So from the initial 30 mile trip home, so far I am over the moon!
Ball ache to fit since we don't use 18 or 16mm at work so spent ages finding right tools! Then seized bolts didn't help but persistence is key (plus a helping hand from a friend!)
Will get some more pictures up tomorrow once I've washed the car properly and I'll update as the weeks go by on ride etc but so far, very happy!
