Is it an MV6 or an Elite?  Where's the boot spoiler gone?

snow white and no spoiler suggests ex plod, but not always

you mean it's catching?

is it cos it's too low? if not, you might just need some spacers to push them out a bit

yeah its catching on inside its already got spacers on it because its been lowered to much the wheels are sitting at an angle the bloke at the garage i no says to get the tracking done to try and straighten them up and maybe a bigger spacer but im running out of space on the wheel nuts so i mite need some longer ones.

Its the camber that needs setting, tracking will will not affect the camber angle.

Looks like youre missing a big pram spoiler on the rear and some aero wing mirrors to compliment what you have already done.

These would probably suit the boy racer style lowering modification and the ridiculous looking astra wheels that belong on an astra.

looks well. omegas are very nice in white. over here in northern ireland they were popping up everywhere estates included. now the "in" colour seems to be black

never listen to bills comment he said that because mine was lowered i should fit a big kit and included a picture of a car with cardboard kit stuck on. each to their own and everyone is intitled to an opinion. you have to take the bad comments aswell  :)

Looks smart, ive got ex police too but lowered 40mm on 19" wheels.

Regarding the front camber. Who ever lowered it obviously didnt pull the top of the hub out before tightening up the 2 shocks bolts. this will correct your camber. Mine was the same when i first lowered it then i figured it out.

So just undo the two bottom shock bolts, pull the top of the hub/disc towards you then re tighten bolts.

Hope this helps :)
