Do you reckon the new DC will be lower than the TM?

The one thing I will say for the Top Mix is that it can take a bit of abuse - there would probably be a lot more give than in a 1 piece bumper.

My TM is very low - esp on the new lowered suspension - I really don't think I could go another mm - I'll be interested to see how you get on with your new spoiler though you should still be sitting slightly higher than the GPX.

Found this out to my peril yesterday when about 50 yards down the road after pulling away from the panel beaters that fit the TM, I walloped it into a ramp :oops:
