     Spent all last night putting the new front wings on, also put on my freshly painted bumper, i defo need a new valance for the front though, other one has distorted from the accident damage, ive got a spare to put on though.

    Needs a good clean and then ill get some pics up, i havent got the front rubstrip back yet, that still needs finishing, but i wanted the car back on the road so im rolling again now :)

    As i said ill wash the car and put the updated pics up.

     Cheers mate, needs bit of adjustment on the passenger side, but my mate said that'll be easy enough, so happy days.

    Then ill get some pics up later on :)

     Awsome car mate, loving the stance,which brings me to my question, whats it lowered by, how was the ride with the 18"s on? and also do you travel with any one in the back,rubbing arches wise? kinda more than 1 question there lol!

     I must admit....i loved the look of it all stripped, was dying to put the headlights in and cruise it with it like that, lol.

    Its lowered on FK coilovers, the ride was fine on the 18's not bad at all, i have my 2yr old daughter in the back at all times, ive had the car with 3 people in the back and there was slight scrubbage but on daily driving its fine, no rubbing at all... front is down 100mm and rear is 75mm :)

    i think you may have bored the woman in the car into a coma with your photo taking, she seems to be struggling to hold her head up and falling over to the side most of the time :)

     do you think it would make any difference if they were 18's and 10" wide? really like the stance of the car too. did you buy them at 10" or have you split them with new dishes?

     Looking good. Bad luck with the accident, glad you got it sorted quickly though.

    The only thing I'd be tempted to change is to put some spacers on the front wheels as they look a little lost compared to the rears IMO.

     yeh front spacers are my priority, dont worry about that, its really annoying me cos everytime i look at it i say 'spacers' to myself, lol.

    House bills to pay first though!

    AMZ - the ET is 25 rear and 35 front, gonna be putting either 10-15mm spacers on the front though to lower the offset and get the fonts down and out aswell.

    As for the 18's and 10" wide mate, i think its defo possible, its just a case off, offset and tyre size!
