What have you done to your Elgrand today?

[WhatsThisFor]

Also it's tein suspension lowered and although it's horrible on shitty road surfaces it's great on bends and roundabouts. I don't feel any wollowing at all. I. My old E46 would wollow and when I got my GTi it showed how crap the e46'was on stock suspension. The E51 on lowered tein is like a GTi . Heard tyre screach coming off a Chichester roundabout but unsure if it was me or the Tesla next to us?. I'm not hooning it, just maintaining pace through them. I'd have felt it if it was me.

Don’t forget the tyres for the full Pallet Truck effect


Full package….

[P4ddy]

Are they fixed or adjustable teins ( they do both), if adjustable then soften them , they’ll still hold on the corners

Looking at them I think they're the street basis Z

Calshot?

I've been to Chichester and back. Measured the wheel to arch distance again and all were equal, get back home and 20mm discrepancy again. It's my driveway

I'm pretty sure that my local beach, near Blakes Cottage.....hello sailor, give us a kiss......

So that’s height adjustment only then but to be fair they are usually good

 

[LeStempy]

Street basis only have preload, no height adjustment

I think I’d be doing it in Qx1 , but then I’d be tinting the headlights too lol

QX1 is a git to match though. Was originally chrome, I have a chrome theme going on (inadvertently) looks way better in full chrome (Gemini mock-up)

I think the DAD grill turns it into a Chrysler

As @LeStempy mentions “basis” only not “z”
Just looked as my memory wasn’t all that “z” has height adjustment only then and “z advanced” has dampening as well

Have you tried a mock-up in black , may look good with the mesh black and headlights darker

Why not try chrome vinyl wrap @Tino ? Not used it myself but should be fairly easy to wrap.
