I don't think I could handle cleaning white wheels all the time especially with the way the roads are just now. Was thinking more towards keeping them silver or maybe even getting them painted grey but thats a while away yet. Brakes are the next upgrade badly needs them now with the extra power.

Nah it just looks like it is in some of the pics because the arch gap is more obvious at the back. Can assure you it was level. Well it was, its more nose down now that the coilovers are on.

On a stock map with the ITG fitted you feel a slight increase in the mid range and intake noice as well as better mpg but its far better if you have it fitted with a stage one map.

Also added some new led registration plate lights, pressed plates and plate surrounds to finish things off. Next up get the standard wheels refurbished, finish polishing the summer wheels then maybe a sub of some description.
