    something like this maybe?

    problem is it's GRP which can crack if you wallop it off something.

    the 323f is a pretty neat looking car in standard form, I don't think bodykits improve the look much, I'd spend money on lowering springs and nice wheels, given how cheap these cars have become it might be more economical to trade up a year or come down in mileage instead of putting more money into this one.

    mileage is pretty good at just 93000 or so. yea you might be right, how much would a body kit cost all together you think, including putting it on etc? if it was the same as going up a year, i would obviously consider upgrading. i was considering the lowering aswel...expensive? thanks for your help so far:)

    you'd be probably looking at 1k for the bodykit fitted.

    www.europerformance.co.uk stock a few different brands for the 323f. around 170 pounds will get you a set. sign up to an owners club, there may be used springs for sale.


    Here is a guide to lowering a 323f.
