Well, I have just recieved my bonus from work and I'm thinking about spending some of it =] My only problem is I'm torn between what to get =[

My options are:

1. Eibach Springs

2. J1 Automotive induction kit

3. 5000k HID kit

4. None of the above and save my money...

So what do you think I should do? I'm leaning towards the springs because I will keep my warranty (eibach are ford approved) but I dont know whether or not I will get up my drive as it's quite steep and I saw Kenny's S1600 at Trax and it looks pretty low.

Eibachs! As that's what I'm doing next
They won't be SUPER low either, so the driveway shouldn't be an issue.

Just out of interest Luke how much bonus did our glorious employer give you if you don't mind me asking? I got £220 after tax which isn't bad for our store normally it's lower than that but any bonus is better than none right? I've spent mine on new wheels but as you don't need them I'd say get lowered changes the car completely you will love it!

+1 dropped my mk7 yesterday on eibachs and it looks awesome, not as crashy either like they were on the mk6 ST. HID's are in also and went for the ones with anti glare - almost as good as the Xenons i had in the Focus.

more changes coming this week

Dan- We got 125% bonus so I got £483.55 but after tax it was like £328 but hey, free money =]

Lee - I want to get both but I'm trying to save lol (even though mountune is calling)

Andy & Tom - I can't see a thing in the dark lol and 5000k HIDs aren't too bright

Everyone else - cheers for the replies, I think the general opinion is eibachs so I think I'll start pricing them up =]

That's a super bonus isn't it? Ours was £330 odd before tax but everyone's is different. Some lad I know does 3 4 hour shifts a week on chilled and he got £160 somehow?! lol I'm pretty sure they messed loads of ours up anyway. Still free money though
