Looks great mate! How much is the car lowered compared to stock height? It looks perfect

Thanks luznit. 8) It's about 25mm lower at all four corners.

My A$0.02: The "Plus" gets a bit lost in the graphics, it and the stripe could be bigger.

Ride Height looks "just right", no 4WD gap any more.

But what about danny's use of 17" wheels when you said anything but 15 or 16 inch wheels would be just hard parking?????

... like the NB, I still reckon 16" rims look best on the ND (light 15" rims are more practical though than 16" rims in terms of tyre choice, price and weight)

Even I'm prepared to admit though that Danny's 17" BBS rims at that ride height do look good.
