My new 2007 FR 'Jaffa Cake'

[ALEXZ360]

id go for 6k hids, they are supposed to be the whitest you can get without going blue

 

[Jordanwaterhous]

I have 6k and they're a bit blue. When I need new I'll go 4.3k or 5k

Get 6k then

Get h7r bulbs too not h7.

H7R are for reflector headlights with hids which is the best for your headlights, less glarey

Personally I'd only fit a panel filter and a PD160 intake... but either way... K&N.

Looking good. Nice and shiney Should have cleaned the wheel arch liners though

 

[phillpotts92]

[marksy93]

i would usally clean the wheel arches however as i had no pressure washer (due to it being minus 3 while i was cleaning) i couldnt

& yeah the car was all clean then i fitted the springs
