Have you keep them?

Did some Shots lately. Pretty filthy, but it's raining pretty much every day atm.

Nice! Can’t wait on your feedback

Erebor · 05-21-2023, 10:41 AM

Well, why wouldn't they fit?

But other than looking slightly sportier, they do nothing.

Had maxton v.4 front splitter along with 10mm spacers fitted this weekend, really pleased with the outcome 😁

Just contemplating getting springs now 😬
I was very surprised how spacers alone make a difference.

Manboy · 05-30-2023, 09:27 AM

I put the 19s back on the car. Not sure what look I prefer the most, these also look good. Definitly prefer the 18s tires (Cup2) over the 19s Sport 4s. The cup2s have insane grip levels.

Still waiting for the other M performance brake disc to arrive, so install has been pushed forward on that mod.

No, I had the same issue and also removed them.

How did you get on with this drop in regards to catching front splitter or side skirts?

General driving was fine, including speed bumps.
There was one very steep driveway that I heard some minor scrape on. If I ever did it all again I would go with either the drop or the splitter but probably not both

I have mine lowered by about 40mm and it drives absolutely fine. No problems so far. the f40 sits extremely high, a moderate drop wont affect its usability.

That seems like a big drop, is this in the uk?

It is, and it's still too high for my liking

. But no, it's in Switzerland.

Couple of pics today now the sun is out

Manboy · 06-15-2023, 02:06 PM

Finally fitted!

Worked without any issues so I ordered the rear discs as well. This is just for aesthetics, there is zero difference in brake feel.
