depends if u rag it about or not. The cheaper springs for 60mm are soft and so if u like to throw it round corners u will get a fair bit of roll. Will look good for cosmetics though of course! Well in my opinion

i have debadged my corsa i used a credit card and then next day used hot water to soften it up and then white spirited it and used the credit card to scrape the bits of adhesive off trust me it works and doesnt damage the paint work i then polished it back up to bring back the shine cheers
