yeh i agree, i'm cleaning them up at the moment and spraying them car colour. as with the front and rear bars. ive got some more crome taping for the rear bar and i suppose i'll have to spray the door moulds strip with crome paint. unless anyone knows where to get the tape.

thanks for the comments.

Dan

Good trick getting all your mates to sit in the car while you photograph it so it looks lower.. LOL.. I might have to try it..

Cheers,
Nik

I would leave the moulds off, they make the car look older IMO

Cool

cheers, rims came from a friends BF xr6 turbo, i paid $600 the tyres had done 3000kms, so i got a sweet deal. so yeh they are genuine, i'm running titanium adapters, which i got from mag wheel and tyre in preston for 250. they sell standard adapters for 200, speak to costa or theo, they'll look after you.

cheers Dan

ide like to keep them off, but i work in a supermarket (might see me parked in tunstell square, donvale) so on close inspection my doors are ******, which is why i'l be colour codeing them, keep it looking relatively sleek but to minimise any more dints.


the rims are 17's but i think they look bigger because of the amount of metal face u see.

cheers Dan
