SAM, get adjustable drop links and make them SHORTER, and you should have better clearance. Driveshaft tends to rub on the top of the droplink that joins the front anti roll bar and the lower control arm. Making the link shorter rolls the antiroll bar forwards giving you more room in the curve at the top, no hitting.
I got some adjustable links from ebay, cut about an inch out and then welded, no more bumpage
Hey Stan!
Quick question, are you still on the stock anti sway bar in the front?

Hey kenbot, yep still stock on the front. Dont know if it is worth swapping it out (bigish job too by the look). If I want more stiffness at the front of the car I'd look at a strut tower brace.
Got my new axles from the UK as ordered - cheap, very fast post and they seem pretty good, yet to install them.
You won't brake the shaft by doing that.
I drove pretty much on the hollow drivers side shaft in my Bora for 2years no problem. I'd think it would do more damage to the cvs when you slam down hard on it when hitting big bumps
Got a R32 catback exhaust installed into my Bora today! Plumbed both pipes into one side with factory tips for the time being. Will be getting a custom valance made up for dual exhaust soon!

The ones at the back are the headlights, H1 and H7.
They are Philips Xtreme Vision so they are a whiter light, but apparently 100% more light than standard. I'll take some night photos tomorrow once I've put the headlights back in and the front bumper back on.
