Picked it up 3wks after buying it!!! Mental note.... Don't buy a car with a private plate on it, I can't believe how long it takes to remove it.

It was worth the wait tho, why didn't I buy one of these sooner :)

This week i finally got the Wheel Alignment sorted after fitting the MSS Streets Spring kit

Image

The kit has now settled well and has lowered the ride height by around 37mm , You may be surprised just how much that kid of a drop in ride height can screw up your geometry !

Image

I spent a good 2 hours + on the spanners , getting it cock on to the values that i wanted :nod:

After two weeks away training I got home and drove him !
Then cleaned him - two weeks is a LONG time
Then admired him ! Today Mrs H & I are over to friends who don't know I changed my car - so I'm expecting admiration and jealousy in equal parts :)

You attention to detail is always so admirable :). How's the handling of the car after lowering it? Can you feel a good difference?

lol ,Thanks dude - some folk say that - most say that im just a fussy b*st*rd :shrug:

Unfortunately , i haven't had chance to properly assess it as yet . The rocco is parked up in the compound at work whilst i'm putting miles on an engineering car for work - it's not even a nice one , but an old (and well used) 9MY XF diesel

Don't worry , i intend to give my full (and frank) feedback on the whole experience with the kit as soon as i get the chance - early signs are positive though ;)

Pic of the front after I used some Autoglym black dye on the honeycomb grille. Looks much better darker.

Looks great man :) excited to see what it looks like when you're done fitting the entire kit. Just a quick Q, what bulbs are you using in your Fogs? :)
