Yep blocks of wood! although to get my car off the ramps when it was done we had to get people to physically lift the arches up to remove the ramp arms lol! i dont really see the lowness as a problem i like it, just gotta be more careful than a normal car

Plans sound good, I'd also say a sports front bumper and now our exhaust is on fit a 180 trim around it

#294: Re: Jord's White 206 Project *SLAMMED P18* Author: JDave, Location: Airdrie, ScotlandPosted: Wed Jan 12, 2011 5:59 pm ---- Here, just had a thought. When I put the splitter on my car, when the snow was hardly even deep it was dragging it all up like a mini snow plow.
And I know your prepared for the "not going over speedbumps" etc, but think of the snow!!!!!

That is one slightly impractical but very sexy looking car. Great job

It is driveable, the bumpers are the last thing that would get damaged, i can still drive it just have to be careful with bumps, there's no point spending air ride money it would cost more than the car is worth... it's not pointless at all
EDIT: but you are entitled to your opinion so thanks for the comment lol
#298: Re: Jord's White 206 Project *SLAMMED P18* Author: Spanerman, Location: Neath, South Wales.Posted: Fri Jan 21, 2011 11:41 am ---- I feel for you
Mine is down 60mm on 14's and the bumper catches everywhere

Just wanted to clear up, I do love the look of the car, but I could never go lower than 40mm as I have speedbumps all over where I live

14's are very small they make a big difference... it's really not as bad as people think just gotta watch for potholes and speedbumps
