just 60mm rear as i couldnt really put a measurement on what the front went down as i changed from standard shocks and springs to coilovers 
and thanks but there's still lots to be done im hoping to be finished by the end of this year with the exterior styling

no i was not using an elastic one im on 17" wheels and its a gti so naturally lower than other 206's
and tbf if its not 60mm then i dont know wat it is but it looks good and sits just as i want so im happy

it is a gti 180 so naturally lower than other 206's?
and how much lower at the front i only have a hands worth of gap before i lose turning ability?
could go another 10mm at most i think but then it will sit nose down and i like it pretty level |
Yeah they do, not by much though. If i remember right it's about 15mm lower than the others.

there actually more of a satin or gloss finish in the headlights and as you know they are factory ones so aint splitting them
gonna re-do the fogs to match though as i did them matt and cant stand the fact that thay dont match the headlights
got a few tips on hw to get them matched anyway so will see how they go when i buy my new fogs
