lookin mint mate, how much is it dropped by front and rear?

shame you can't get as much dish on the front wheels.. those borbets look the tits!

Post

you can get the borbets in 7j all round, 7j front 8j rear or 8j all round..

i like the bigger dish on the rear tbh :)

i dont plan to keep them to long anyway so, will get something abit more flashy..

im not sure how much its lowered by dude, got a few threads left on the rear, and about an inch of thread on the front, but then i could take the helper springs out and go lower, but want to sort the rear arches out first and get them rolled or need to sort some camber shims out…

its looking hot man, the green trees just set off that paintwork! i love it! nice to see you're keeping it so clean aswell, what do you use when you wash / polish it out of interest?

btw looking at the top pic, ur mate shaun doesnt have a saxo by any chance does he?

and OMG please tell me that is not a dent in your bonnet? kind of swirlyness in the paint in the higher-view pics?  :|

i have only polished it once since ive owned it, i didnt even wash it before those pics, but its came out very well..

its a corsa in the top pic bud..

and yer its a dent in the bonnet, cant really see it that well in person but obviously the camera has shown it well, i am after a new bonnet anyway as its got stone chips on the front, and cheaper buying a bonnet then getting it painted..

was planning on taking it off the road in a few weeks when the tax is up (over the winter months), but it wouldnt start just, down to the starter motor, so this has gave me the urge to just take it off the road now for the winter instead..

will still update, as i will be making changes to the car still..
