Not done myself but had the van lowered using H&R 40mm, BC flip kit and Gaz rear shocks

All work undertaken by Andy over at overboost

Looks and feels so much better

Nice @Fran1981 👍

That’s a bummer 😩
Mine’s a 2018 Life, and doesn’t have them, might have to pop mine off again mate, and see if there’s a supply there somewhere to use ?
Cheers 👍
