Monkfish Performance are the only company to trust with the VXR8s.. Wouldnt give it to Vauxhall to do anything

Sadly Monkfish cost a few pennies

Do Eibach not do springs for this then? You won't need to go changing all the shocks with Eibachs as they are a progressive spring, won't go damaging your shocks and won't lower the car a stupid amount just enough to make a difference.

Depends on what springs you get, prolines are progressive and only a minor drop. Sportlines offer a bigger drop but can shag your dampers as they are not necessarily matched to the OE dampers. I would always buy a full kit especially on a car worth as much as this.

Our pedders suspension kits are for those that are wanting an improvement in looks and performance that replaces the standard springs and dampers with performance items. The ride height of the car is lowered for a more aggressive stance. Ride and handling is sharpened up for improved control. Note that this kit is not adjustable in terms of ride height and damping.

This kit includes four new springs, four new dampers, fitting and a full digital geometry session and adjustment to our own specially developed settings.

Fitted price includes geometry session



PLEASE get this. I can't wait to call you a Pedderphile.
