I can see the market being people who want that slammed look for shows, but their lifestyle prevents it.

Easy to do on your own with no need for any special tools, all you need is a strong tarp or an old sleeping bag and 35 of Wickes finest paving slabs!

As you can see from the first pictures this lowering had a slight bias to the rear, I'm sure this could be altered by installing the lowering kit into the footwells, the seat back pockets (some modification may be needed) and on the laps of passengers.

The only downside to this ingenious system is a slight reduction in the 0-60 time and the MPG...

Please remember that as this is not a performance upgrade handling will not be improved.

Further information on this and other kits can be found at http://www.wickes.co.uk/icat/ppaving
