Viva looks brilliant!!! The two doors are so cool and it looks so mean there. Manta's cool too but I'll have the Viva first please. Welcome to the forum too Shelly. Is it matt black?

Both of them are gorgeous! Don't usually like matt black but in this case its works so well and looks properly done! It's also giving me naughty thoughts about turning my spare Viva into a matt black track car again, only problem being it's a 4 door Can I ask how much you will be lowering by and what exhaust system you have? reason is I've lowered mine by 2" and the exhaust has about 1.5" clearance where it passes under the gearbox cross member so scrapes on anything, and that's with standard wheels. But Powerflow made my system and I don't think it could have been worse if they'd tried!

Back end of the Viva is only gonna be lowered between half an inch to an inch max. The front roughly an inch and a half - gotta get that 70s stance right!!!!
Exhaust I cannot tell you much about, as my Hubby modified an Ashley exhaust system from 1600 sport. Just cos he's an old Ford Boy!!!!!
