I like 'em although Im going to get them powder coated red!
Small update, but no pics as my puter is still an expensive word procesor at the mo :(Have fitted the V6 sill spats and removed the mudguards, also have some
impreza rear bumper spats coming in the post, dont know if they will fit
it was just a punt really…. will let you all know the oucome soon :D
-
im going to be busy this weekend :D just ordered some 11mm wide white reflective rim tape…..
-
OK just a quick teaser for you all of these impreza rear bumper spats on an mx3!
The contour is perfect, just need some more trimming and possibly plastic
weld the end cap back on….
-
spat shortened and end cap plastic welded back on…. all you need is
a hob and a old steak knife.. and of course a wife who dont mind you messing up Her kitchen :lol:
-
Got my 11mm reflective white wheel tape on there this morning, opinions welcome :D
-

-
looks well mate
-
Just put my order in folks for some xyz coilovers :D :D
-
looks good, I do like rim tape, will look even better when your coilovers are on, slam that cars ass down low!!
-
Definetley coilovers for the big win, Famine and myself have spent all day struggling with lowering springs and the effect is not yet noticeable, coilovers will be instant and I think easier than changing springs. Just watch those blots as they are a right pain in the arse (snapped one and rounded one off) and the rears are also a pain to re-align too!
-
Tell me about it lol have been doing lowering springs for a mates 20 year
old MR2 this weekend and they dont make it easy, you cant even release
the strut without undoing break unions so we had to to breakdown the struts in situ, was well awkward !!

They still need a little more prep work James, plus I got to make some brackets and enquirys about getting them painted as they are very flexible I dont want the paint crackin after a few weeks!
I will be starting on the brackets this week in my lunchhour (well i get half hour) though :D
-
Lead time on the coilovers is 10 days, but the seller (XS-power)
reckons it doesnt usually take that long!

Coilovers IN DA HOUSE :lol:
Better get my ass better so I can fit these this weekend :roll:
-
Jealoussssssssssssss! Let us know how they feel when they're on, and of course pics ;)
-
Took alot of hard saving to get them, but it had to be done as my ride height on 15" wheel with -35mm springs is criminal!
Now its time to super dump this mofo, until i need to get over a speed bump or two!
Yeah i will give my review once there on, plus loads of pictures once I have cleaned and polished though :D

There's no point if it's no gon scrape. Just dump it and think of alternative routes :lol:
I know I could do with dropping another inch on the front of mine and possibly half an inch on the rear, already dropped 40mm.
I'll have to wait until next year for coilies and I think getting the whole underneath of the car replaced :lol:
-
Yeah man good ethic , I can still get my whole fist inbetween the wheel and the arch athe mo :o :lol:
Good things comes to those who wait :wink: :D
Need to get me a low entry jack before i dump it too low and cant get it back up again :lol:
