Nice start stuart, guessing its not lowered yet? the pillars dont look wrapped, thought they were just lcr ones. good job, did it stick well? any pics from outside with wind diffectors? are they proving to be any help or was it just for the look?

 

[stuartleon]

Not yet after Christmas I will as I want to do coilovers, arb and poly bush all at once. The pillars do look better on Person I must admit, it stuck well and was rather easy. The defectors are good as they stop the annoying whistle and they look good too.

cool, Ive just done mine on springs...coilovers are a bit too much for the moment being, but i like the fact that youd be able to set the ride hight that you want, i imagene that the coilovers will be acomplished by a set of wheels? any ideas on what theyl be as of yet?

 

[stuartleon]

Yeah I have some ideas but still not sure choices are xxr 527, 3sdm 0.05 + 0.01 and dare drs still trying to find out which ones will look better

 

[litcan91]

Love the bulkiness of 3sdm, but it does mean going really low.. they come in 5x100?

 

[stuartleon]

Yeah I would like to go pretty low anyway. Yeah they all come in 5x100

 

[litcan91]

expensive i guess?

 

[stuartleon]

Yeah about 600 for a staggered set up which is what I'd like

 

[stuartleon]

Yay!!
Got this today
