   Was thinking of getting this. Where abouts does it fit. I didn't even know they did them. Also will it be ok as I have lowered my car 45-50mm on Eibach shocks and springs.

   It fits on the back of the wishbones.
   
   If your down 45-50, you may struggle with one on. Im down 40mm and have written of two by hitting speed bumps etc..
