I had a Fiat Cinquecento prior to the Micra. The roof trim strips hit the bin quite early on and I welded a similar guage steel strip in to bridge the gap. No flexing issues there of course because of the weld. Do it, you've nothing to lose!

I took a cheeky picture.

PS - I do know someone with a laser cutter!

Would it help if I knew someone with a laser cutter?

Using an oxy acetylene torch to heat springs to compress them is an old custom trick from the 50's. Didn't think anyone still did that now that it's possible to get springs made so easily.

Nope, never used material like that. Sounds good though! It's got to be worth a trip to a laser cutter to get a master made so if you need help with creating the right drawings, give me a shout. The software I use can export to the dwg format that they'd need. Also, I know a chap who's just...

Well you beat me, I'm a sprightly 45, a mere teenager by comparison :)

Good grief! You must be even older than me! Mine was a wopping £301 including UK and Continental breakdown.

It was a company that advertised on here I think, Prestige Keep Moving. They have other underwriters that would cover lowered cars but the one they put me with doesn't like it. I remember at the time of insuring and declaring the alloys they said just let us know if you make any more changes...
