The pic below is a Fifft red next to a standard rear lense, I bet they'd look nice on a black Sportline.

The all reds look nice! I had a play about with a few different rears on mine, I tried Fifft reds and Postie rears but decided to stick to the originals.

The FIFFT ones are nice, that's the look I was going for…

My big bonus is, I got sent 2 sets so I have another set for my black one :-)
Here's a pic of the handbrake, I think it looks much better than the plastic bit ??

Saying that though, on my black one I am thinking about keeping it standard suspension wise !!
So just ignore me ;-)
OR get a red one as well and have one low and one standard

Wheels really suit your car but IMO I would have it a bit lower just to shut the arch gap :-)

Lol, I do have some rear spring that I will fit in due course.
Only the front has lowering springs for now as I wanted to even the height out as it was lower on the rear.
The thing about dropping it further just worries me as I don't want arch fouling as I have a car full sometimes.
There were five of us in it yesterday and I want to keep it practical and useable with the family.
It has certainly settled further since the pics, but yes it could do with a tad more lowness…
