Agree with you Stu, raise it, aside from scraping it all the time it looks too low

Going on my experiance of coilovers, there wasnt a lot of difference in ride quality with them all the way up compared to all the way down.
Either way they are designed not to have give in them.

Looking better, I would go a tad higher personally, but only for look and not to scrape all the time. Like Norm says, may not make any difference to the ride.
Still looking sweet though

I was going to go to the AGM in July as well but I am on my hols as would have been cool to see all the other people and their cars.
