Just Tein springs would be ok mate for lowering and comfort. Roll bars would be best going for 22mm front and 24mm rear whiteline goodies. As for the scratches id take the car to a detailer to have a look,youd be surprised what they can remove

£800 is very cheap . Is it a trim removed, glass out re-spray?

Oh and don't forget an alignment/geometry setup when you put the lowering springs on. More cash!

I would go with uprated Whiteline or CDF drop links all round, Whiteline 22mm adjustable rear anti roll bar (set it to the middle setting), Prodrive lowering springs (the best available without a doubt) and a decent geometry setup at Melvyn Evans Motorsport near Lampeter.

Don't bother with the front anti roll bar, unless you intend to go for a 24mm or 25mm rear anti roll bar as it will be a waste of your money (and I speak from experience).

You can get the Whiteline parts from Indigo-GT in Merthyr Tydfil.
