Livesports skirts clearance?

[A L 3 X]

Looking to get some livesports skirts but I'm a bit worried about clearance and stuff.

What do people who've got them find?

[MARC MOSS]

If they're anything like toms skirts they hit everything lol just be a little careful an everything will be ok...

[A L 3 X]

Hmm, I'm just worried about for like mot and stuff the garage I use has a tricky entrance, may have to change garages though lol

[akyakapotter]

I need / want livesports skirts to finish off the bottom half of my car if your not scrapping your not low enough

[A L 3 X]

Don't wanna be scraping mate, like everything to be mint and if I bought a set and had em painted for them get cracked easily I'd be pissed off lol

[MARC MOSS]

Don't bother then lol

[A L 3 X]

But I want them lmao

[akyakapotter]

or make it a high rider lol

[A L 3 X]

It's not exactly low lol, sensible height on the coilovers

If say it was a bit higher than my 40mm springs and knackered shocks which looked more like 60mm, so I'd say its around 60mm front 50 rear or so?

Just do it mate u won't know till u av done then u may just av to careful on speed bumps either way the look is worth it

[A L 3 X]

Think I will do mate, its not so much the speedbumps as I take them slow anyway, its the garage i use for MOT's and repairs that worries me, their entrance is somewhat a bastard, although I assume blocks of wood will do

Just to bump this up, people with big kits like the livesports skirts, how do you find the mot brake tester? They're brutal things does it not smash the kits to bits?

[micky boy]

If you can find a pic of Dannyglanzav's old sliver glanza he cut the livesports skirts down! And looked much better i thought!

[A L 3 X]

I've seen it mate but not sure how he did that, i'd likely be keeping them as is, I doubt it would make a whole lof of difference to the height anyway i thought he only took like 1 cm off?

[ryan lang]

most people thing it was engine problems that made me scrap my old car, it wasnt :/

it was the fact that the jam sideskirt got ripped off on a ramp, that was the final straw for me haha

so pretty sure the L/S skirts were lower than mine

[daniel_g]

What about the GT livesports skirts, same story yeah ?

[A L 3 X]

Hmm you see this is what id be like, ripping the skirts off everywhere would wind me up something proper, but I think I'd be ok aside from the mot brake tester, everywhere else I can use wood blocks really?

[Burny]

Yep i have to use wooden block because a jack wont fit under mine lol, plus i cant get her in the MOT garage..... And i ran over a rabbit and if smashed up my one skirt too...

[A L 3 X]

Oh my lol, how do you manage to mot it then?

[akyakapotter]

[A L 3 X]

So do I but im unsure lol

[micky boy]

Lol I was geared up to last night, but everyone says they're a nightmare.

I'll get the spoiler first, then go from there.

[micky boy]

Yeah man i suppose a spoiler would look well anyways good for that

I use the jack that comes in the car to get it started then use a trolley jack never had any problems in 5 years also never had anissue with the rollers for brake testing. The car is really really low the cusco lower arm bar is dying a slow painful death though.

If your only lowered 40mm you should be fine imo.
