Philuk 0 Posted May 27, 2008 Just lowered the car a bit more last friday, got it washed and used the new autoglym wax - didnt like it but it looks shiney :D. put the wheels on for a quick snap, going to widewheels this week to get the artches done so gonna drive there with the front 2 on and the rear 2 in the back of the car :D PICS! dunno if i think it needs to go a tad lower, not much tho, wanna see how much it catches if it does when ive got the wheels on and the arches done. think the paint might crack so will be getting them done as much as needed to stop the wheels touching, with the paint splitting a bit on the back of one of the arches i aint too bothered about it :D w9ill put pics up of it being done when im there and will get some from when its done but that its for now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Philuk 0 Posted July 17, 2008 had a week off last week so managed to get loads done to the car that ive wanted to do for ages! took wheels off washed & sealed them with chemical guys wheel sealant - highly recomended its nice! i made a false floor for the boot then had to cut it into 2 to get it in. used the original boot carpet and mounted my active sub and amp for my speakers into it. painted my calipers black whilst i had the wheels off gave the car a proper good cleaning over with the dodo juice :D and all the rest of the time it rained so i played GTA4 and am very close to completing all the missions now :D also i fitted my BMC CDA ( given that was the week before) but it sounds sexual :D :luvlove: PICS SOON!

Rob_G60 0 Posted July 18, 2008 hello mate, what size brakes do those wheels fit over mate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philuk 0 Posted July 18, 2008 not sure what size brakes will go under the wheels. its currently running the standard VR brakes on the front and there is loads of space. ill have alook and take a p0ic sidfe on see if we can work out what might go underneath them!

Philuk 0 Posted August 10, 2008 took some more snaps tonight. now have had all 4 arches ,bonnet resprayed and drivers sill. got a BMC CDA which has made the car sounds sweet as :) saving for EBC brakes and exhaust system now :) Pics! thanks for looking :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cdem 0 Posted August 10, 2008 Looks smart! Do you have any problems getting over speed bumps at all?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philuk 0 Posted August 10, 2008 as it stands now. it only and i mean onyl just touches the very top of speed bumps with the splitter. i have cracked it on the far right. but i hit a big block of wood the other week and did that. avoiding massive dips in the road is a must but apart from that i have no problems with the undercarraige or exhaust catching. only the arches occasionally and the splitter :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
