Im running buddyclub's on my jazz. Got to say they are a pretty poor design. The antiroll bar set-up for the front is a joke. You'll have to preload the fronts a fair amount to use the oem endlinks. The front springs are 8k, so that combined with the preload will shatter your spine.

So what would you suggest to make it better?. How much should i preload? and what kinda drop would it give me?

Nice build there Vajazzle!
Where did you get the rear foglight? Do you have a daylight picture of it so I can see where and how you mounted it?

I too have changed the rear lights on my Jazz and now I don't have a rear foglight anymore. I was first thinking of modifying one of the retroreflectors and put the foglight there, but I liked your position of it better.

I found it in a car shop in hong kong when i was out there.. I noticed that i for super ripped off now that i just found this one on ebay for much cheaper but you have to add in the shipping fee.

Universal F1 Style Car Blinking Triangle LED Brake Lamp Bulb Flash Fitting K0E1 | eBay

you can get an idea of how it's mounted.. just 2 screws. power taken from the fog lamp and wires pulled up the bumper and around to the side tail light.

There is. It's called clubjazz.org. Not especially brilliant imho.
Val - awesome work mate. I'm in south London. Been modding my stab for years but gotta sell now as getting company car. Looks like I'll be turning my modding attention to the wife's jazz! Like your work and will draw inspiration.

Are you keeping the oem wheels or would you sell them?

Thanks Red_H

Hey man i will be selling the oem rims if your interested in them but not desperate to sell. Always looking for new alloys to replace the Rotas at a later date but can't find anything i like right now. I got so much to do to the jazz, half the bit are still lying round waiting for the cold weather period to pass by before putting them on so stay tuned!

I have front strut, bride rails, recaro seats, coilovers, caliper painting, all to go on before looking into gettting a wrap on the car.

Yeah the Jazzclub.org is whack. Altho i did get some bit and bobs off there which was lucky =D

Wrap eh? That sounds cool. What are you going for? I love the deep sheen of buffed paint - will you lose that with a wrap?

If your alloys are up for grabs at a reasonable price, I'll take em yep. Pm me if you like.

Preload the springs enough to use the oem droplinks. They will put the car on the floor dude......they go very low!
