I know looks can be deceiving but I don't a standard bonnet would fit with the skeleton still in place. Don't forget you got the height of the piston & nut aswell.
dam cool idea tho.
given my welding ability I think I'm gonna stick with shorter shocks! lol
oh, u running 15s, 16s, 17s?
I can safely say a standard bonnet would not fit...but when has that ever been a problem lolQuote:

;) Cool as funk. Good work that man!
Cheers Ernie did they come out as you imagined?
Thanks for that pic Ash its given me a semi lol
Wouldn't you have been better off tubbing the front end? what's the inner arch clearance like? And TCA angle, surely you're gonna need to raise the inner TCA mounting points?
Not meaning to piss on your bonfire, and fair play for having the balls to attack it like you do!
I will enter lolQuote:

And yer you are being very negative lol
TBH biggest issue running urba low on a nova is not suspension angles its necking out the CV joints.

That was my nova on its ledas running the highest possible i could run.
O and it still had a ruck load of travel to go.
WEIGHT :pQuote:

I wuv you and your car :D (is that more positive lol)
love the way Oli is being negative because its something his car doesn't have lol
brill work James, proper bo, glad it worked out as we planned it
regardless of 'needing' the shock travel Oli, the more you have, the better it is, you can't argue with that.
That's because its heavy :pQuote:
