i didn't smooth my side strips as i think it takes to much away from the car, but saying that ive regretted it since having the bodywork done. 5 door yes 3 door i think it depends on the car/colour

Well, drive shaft number 2 went tonight on the way back from my mates house  cv joint started creeking and got worse when I got to his house, pretty mush drove it back 4 miles with that hazards on at 15mph and the cv joint went about 20 yards from my house which was lucky! Didnt have to push it far which is a bonus but still sucks that I have to wait till payday to go and buy one

I can't imagine that's going too well with all of the driveshaft/CV replacements you're having to do though  Just raise it to a practical level until you can afford the upgrade!
