nah i had rayvern set it up on stops so that the car wont hit the deck. It sits about 25 mm f the floor, which is plenty low enough and it goes muvva high!!
The set up is real smart. They have done a real nice job of it, but i cant post pics up of the rams as they made an mdf unit to cover it all and protect it. I'l try and take it off at the weekend so i can snap a few pics!
Cheers people!

nah im not too keen on the quality of lambo doors. I've based the car around quality, so i dont want to put a crappy kit on it. If i ever do decide to go ahead with the doors, i'l go for the kit made by exquisite. Basically the hinges are about 20mm thick, as to 7mm... plus they go all the way into the air like the ones in the vid on the red mr2 with celica headlights!
As for cost, so far including the car it has cost me about £8000, but like i say to a lot of people. Your only young once, and if your going to do it, do it how you want!!
The car is fully paid for, with not a credit card, loan, direct debit etc. in sight.
Its fully paid for from lots of long hours at work and lots of saving!
Makes it all worth while when you hear possitive comments about your car, so once again. Thanks very much guys!
Appreciate it!

the hydraulics were £2165.
That was including the kit, pump, battery, high pressure lines, wiring kit, 4 hydraulic rams, kill switch and fitting.
They had the car for 5 days and they worked 3 14 hour days!!
If i had my own way, i would of gone for air ride, but 1: they couldnt fit the bags in the suspension chambers and 2: the car would of still sat 65mm off the floor due to the car being so high to start with.
Im still happy with it though!
