So this week has been quite an expensive, yes quite pleasing week. Started off bought myself some wind deflectors from Team Heko which I think really suit the car.
After that it was time for some new tyres as the original Bridgestones had completely had it
So new rubber
took everyone's recommendations on here and went for the Michelin Super Sports and WOW what a tyre, have only drove in the wet and icy roads on them so far and they are such a big improvement on the originals. Cannot wait to try them in the dry.
Next up I bought some VWR lowering springs literally brand new in the box off somebody on Instagram for a good price, and couldn't wait to get them on lol. While it was in workshop I had my diamond cut wheels sprayed gloss black, and as much as it hurt me to do it with them being diamond cut, I personally think it looks so much better. I also had a few other bits done gloss black on the car, badges etc and I now think it all ties in nicely and doesn't look to over the top, with just 3 colours on the car, white, gloss black and red.
Really pleased with how the ride is aswel with the springs, was expecting it to be a lot harsher, but it's not. You do feel it a little more going over pot holes maybe, but other than that really pleased with the way it looks and the way in handles. Anyway here's a few pics and would welcome any good and bad views on the car and ways I can maybe improve it some more
