ok so im finally working a job that lets me spend money on my car. making about 8 times what i was so its gonna get fun.
i sold my big n uglys (20s) as i copped s**t for having them cos the car doesnt suit em. although i had more people saying they liked it then didnt but whateva lol. (IMG:http://img864.imageshack.us/img864/2293/25122010243.jpg) well i found a bloke selling a set for about half what i sold mine for and there in about the same condition so im going to have a look at them this weekend. (IMG:http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/1242/12010005.jpg) (IMG:http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/8/12010002.jpg) looks like this atm just a lil higher in the back (this photo it didnt have any springs or shocks or bumpstops. the chassis rails were resting on the diff lol. and yes it drives like this. good to know for later on with bags lol) found one! (IMG:http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/9615/15449710150091194825832.jpg) ^^ thats current height lol also i put this add up yesterday on my facebook. "WTB: 351 clevo and c4 auto to suit. v8 engine mounts to suit x series and t5 crossmember." all im gonna say is i dont need to put it as my status again. stay tuned (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif) also comming: another set of 20s (the set ive always wanted and will stay on the car) respray in lexus pearl white. airbags. prolly the best pic of it. which are also at current height god im silly haha (IMG:http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/7913/mg4510pfn.jpg) (IMG:http://img861.imageshack.us/img861/9058/mg4513pf.jpg) (IMG:http://img851.imageshack.us/img851/8788/mg4516pf.jpg) and the boot lol (IMG:http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/5298/30032011309.jpg) This post has been edited by pinkie: Jun 21 2011, 01:58 PM |

You might wanna lower the front a bit, bit of a rake towards the rear end? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif) Also, not a really a fan of those rear lights. Considered an XD front swap? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif)
Wheels are a massive improvement, but what do the new ones look like? This post has been edited by DMC-12: Jun 21 2011, 02:48 PM |

love the wheels you have now, hopefully the new ones will look just as nice.
My least favorite part of your car is your trunk setup... it looks pretty ghetto, IMO the more oem it looks, the better unless you have a full on show car. |

well if you gotta do it then you gotta do it, make it look more built into the trunk then instead of just chillen in the middle.

and yeh white walls has bitten me hard buying bmx tires with walls for my bikes and getting em done on my motot when i get it aswell. i dunno it just make everything look so much better and sets it off. guess youd prolly be the same if you were brought up here aswell lol and heres a pic of the stockies the car came with. with whitewalls ofcorse haha (IMG:http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/8403/02270015.jpg) (IMG:http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/39/02270016.jpg) date is wrong haha This post has been edited by pinkie: Jun 21 2011, 04:53 PM |

I like the idea of gigantic rims and pearl paint, but everything else about sex spec is poo.
If your car didn't have those louvers (What the hell are they anyway? Louvers belong on the outside......), tail lights, or gauges on the wrong side of the windscreen, it would look great. |

i still don't like huge rims unless they're on a huge car
i'd roll with those 17's and a drop to be fully honest, but that's just me even moreso i'd get the 17s to poke a lil' hehe i'm so not ausdm (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif) |
