Hi, been looking for a set of lowering springs for the wifes car and have only seen 35mm springs, does anyone do anything shorter?

I'm liking that idea, may even try and get some 14" steelies on there.

Obviously share his good taste then as I can honestly say I came up with this idea before seeing his!

Has anyone fitted wheels from another make of car other than nissan, I see renault volkswagan and vauxhall all share the same stud pattern as the micra.

I'm a mitsubishi man myself, but its too expensive as a daily runner so its purely a weekender! The micra is the daily hack, but I like my hacks with a bit of style!

Just had a look and thats pretty smart! I dont think I want to go to quite that extreme, but a few subtle improvements would be helpfull, hopefully I can pursuade her to get to some jap shows next year!

But with no power steering, having driven it for the first time today I found the steering suprisingly hard for a vehicle of this size and baring in mind its my wifes runabout I'm...

I had thought about keeping the bumpers black, but there are few little scrapes on the edges which i could fill if I was to paint it, however I could probably live with them, especially with some time attack wheels to continue the theme!

thats interesting to read, I have many sets of renault alloys, including the type shown at the top in orange, might give them a try on my new micra if the weather brightens up.

Hi everyone, my names Gazz and Ive just bought a little micra to run around in! The wife got fed up filling up my Mitsubishi with petrol so decided we had to have something sensible! Considering doing a few tastefull mods, nice wheels, body coloured bumpers and possibly lowering. Here...
