It's your cold air intake.
So the filter don't breathe a load of hot stuffy engine air and the lovely cold Blighty air.

**omox** · 30-01-2010, 07:31 PM

lookin good mate, as the others are saying, lowered and alloys mate, make it look a hell of a lot better.

gareth9989 · 06-02-2010, 05:06 PM

OsakaBoy · 10-03-2010, 12:24 PM

They look like tigra alloys same as what i have, if so you dont need spacers.

gareth9989 · 10-03-2010, 05:36 PM

lol probably because there like, a tenner in argos lol i think they make it look better though

(Y)

i dont think im going to lower it, too expensive and most of the time my cars full of people, i dont think that will do it a lot of good :S.

next is lights font angel ones (or what ever there called) and rear smoked ones,
got an exhaust tip until i can afford/find a back box

erm then i dont know.....

corsa_char9 · 14-03-2010, 07:45 PM

haha yer good old argos eh

and yer it dont make it look too bad especially compared to some of the seat designs haha

If your worried about it sitting too low with passengers, dropping it 40mm keeps it high enough for the extra weight. I wouldnt lower it 60 though coz thats the reason i had to raise mine haha
But if you dont want the hassle then thats fair enough mate

gareth9989 · 14-03-2010, 11:47 PM

Lol Argos is the best! Lol ha some interiors are shocking :s. I think I'm gonna stick to my lights and back box, then just polish up the paint and keep all the trim nice and black
