Well considering the long list of reasons for it being too low there's a pretty strong case for it actually being too low. It doesn't look good either.
I'm sure cruising round McDonalds car park will do it no harm though.

the black badge looks good, and the bonnet looks good.. can't say I like anything else.
If you're going to make a car that low, buy one that handles like s**t in the first place, dont ruin the character of a good car.

In your oppinion it's too low but then you may think my oppinion of buying a 180 and making it look good rather than buying a 138 and wasting money making it fast "like a 180" and wasting money making it look "like a 180" is wrong but then again there's so many reasons why that doesn't make sense lmao

As said, too low for my liking. Raise it slightly to make sure your axle lasts a bit longer

But you've wasted your money by spending more and effectively slowing down a 180?
I'm not talking about looks, but if I was, then you've made a 180 look like an xsi, which in my opinion is worse than a 180 lookalike

If it was all about speed I wouldve kept my 341bhp corsa turbo apart from which I really can't see lowering my car is going to make that much difference to the performance of a 180bhp 206 lol

Well, Edward already told you how it would.
Have fun and think of us when your back end squirrels and you slide off the road, or you get overtaken by a stock 180 because of your uplift.
