Corrosion to the spring seat on the damper body

Shelled out a few quid and these turned up at my door:

All went well in the fitting (nice and easy job) and I took a few pics and measurements along the way:


I measured the OE ride height from the chassis as 145mm front and 140mm rear with suspension droop 52mm and 61mm approx respectively. See OE pic below:


With the Exige kit (above) on I measured the front and rear as being 5mm higher than OE (150/145) with reduced droop (similar droop to what Nitron recommed). Not really what I wanted with regards to ride heights


However, despite this and my geo being out the car felt pretty good! Much firmer than OE and for the better....just need to somehow sort out the ride height issue.
