Hi, I have lowerd my front and I can't get my jack under it, I have to use the DMC sissor jack on the jacking point to raise the car a couple of inches before the other jack will roll under. But the change in appearance is well worth the hassell. On the spring changing front, I had a mobile mechanic come and do mine while I was at work it cost me £30. He said that the stock springs were very long for the car, as his spring compressor came apart befor the spring had full returned to size, luckly there was only a bit of spring left in it by that time.
