Can be done, I look into it a bit.
But they are really expensive, and almost always a custom job.
It isn't something I can just sell, and let the customers bolt on as it is a big job installing air compressor, running lines, etc.

Personally, I don't really like Air Suspension though as they are very limited in performance.
They work fine, but never as well as a proper performance spring / damper combination.

But with enough funds, it can be done... just like most things in the car world.

I realise its a custom job and performance wise it won't be great for thrashing it around corners but its also just scraping 100bhp atm so im concentrating on getting it looking good
I was gonna contact havair but the full kit looks about 1500 for a basic kit or 2800 for an all singing all dancing kit which I dont thinks bad really
