am I too old for lows?
I got given a set of -35mm springs for my Pug 207, although its the GT model it does ride annoying high so I thought instead of all the faff of changing springs over to the existing struts, I would just buy a set of brand new struts with new top mounts, bump stops etc, and build them up as a set, which in turn would make changing them over a lot easier.
aged 53, will it look odd for me to be riding around in a lowered car?

If anyone thinks it's odd, that's their problem.

I'd settle for being able to get in and out of a lowered car.

About to turn 50 (how did that happen ??) , my B2000 must have at least 4 inch out the front & 6 out back . Getting ready to drop the daily VW T5 around 5 inch . As said above , it really doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks . 👍

If you're starting to care about what the average person thinks, maybe you should stop modifying.
Your car, your rules. Enjoy it!

The best thing about being middle aged is that we're basically invisible to younger people, therefore you can do whatever you want without worrying if it's cool* or not.
*Or whatever gen Z say these days, they basically make up new words and everybody seems to somehow instantly know what they mean.

Age is irrelevant.... I'll be 73 this year, still driving (and enjoying) a 2 seater sports car

Black is not a colour ! .... Its the absence of colour

Never mind the "lows" were both over 70 and need a ladder to get into this and don't really care what people think. Age is just a number, go for it.
