Getting more and more tempted to change my body kit, the front bumper, always catches on kerbs mainly, when i turning around or parking, starting to annoy me alot lol, ive got the suspension so i can get over speed bumps ok, unless they are the monster speed bumps then i scrape. Just not sure what to go with. any ideas?

looks like this at the mo and i dont want to change my wing, so dont think oem with a nice lip is gonna look right.

you can get single front end kits that raises the car, i was talking to a lad last night who has a golf with airbag suspension, he says the ride hasn't really changed from his coilovers unless he is riding it high (which looks stupid). i know a few top end cars have the ability to raise the front end a few inchs, maybe worth a look instead of changing that gorgous looking motor.

Thanks for all the positive comments guys, i do love it as it is, so will probably end up keeping as it is, guess i need to be a bit more careful :)

, and not let it annoy me when i do catch it lol

Yeah i have been looking into those, they do a kit that fits over the top of your coilovers. http://www.stance-solutions.co.uk/1

 

Loving that dude, keep the front bumper and reinforce the bottom like a few people on here have done.

 

P.s. What wheels are those ? seriously nice looking car though mate.

 

Wheels are Rays volk racing, 18" lightweight ones, repainted black.

I suppose it depends how fast you drive over these bumps? I also have an apr splitter on mine, that protects most my bumper damaged z:).

i dont go very fast, its mainly kerbs that catch me out, when turning around or parking. i really want a splitter on mine, bet yours was fairly expensive

looking good mate

 

Cheers Jurgen, so glad i bought this of you, been an awesome car :D

 

 

I still think to date this is the best kit by far, thats why I put it on my supra.

 

I gotta agree, this is probably my favorite kit, although wish they did a proper wide body version of it. Guess i could just get it made widebody, using the same style as the kit hmmmmmm....... i like that idea lol
