haa haa that website is funny i went onto street lowering and it said ' if your beemer 3 series has 500kg of ice and you want a 60mm drop then we is the main man' but the best one is the is says does your corsa roll like jelly when doing donuts in tescos car park then steal a mobile and call us. bit off point ohh well, so has anyone used this mob before then.
