If you start driving it, remember to make some long and hard brakes, after a few of those, they should be decent again. But yeah, not driving makes things worse. I'd suggest lending it to your parents or relatives to drive, while you get your licenses.
On another tone, the goodies seem nice (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif) |

Looking nice. The Alpinas without the center caps look like Style 32 haha. Anyways I like where this is heading. Wish I had such free money to toss around on coilovers and Alpinas (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif)

Sorry for being unactive the last days :/
I've lowered the ass and I'm quite happy, my tires havn't arrived yet so it doesn't sit like I want to. I'll take all the pics in order, I've taken all the pics with my phone so it's quite crappy quality (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) But first this: (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/QlCEcaO.jpg) Yup, this china s**t flew away doing 195km/h / 120 mp/h (on a closed road ofc...) with a bang and left a small dent on the wheel well. The bang was so big so I got super scared and thought it was the coilover (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumbup.gif) Back with the orange ones... (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/EOqLxPH.jpg) Not much to say, you get the idea. Don't look at the rust... (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/69LCLHa.jpg) Ebay (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/pGDWj5V.jpg) Master at parking, 1cm to go (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif) (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/o4mzFgQ.jpg) Lowered rear, left side took about 10 mins with a friend helping Right side took about 1.5 hours because old rubber s**t -.- It sits quite good now but it'll be lower (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) DON'T LOOK AT THE RUST! (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/2DBzNrw.jpg) Found this on FB from the meet The black stuff hanging under the car is ''mudflaps'' which will be destroyed (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/tYPFZYO.jpg) Me in the front, looks good from a distance (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toothygrin.gif) (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/rvlywNy.jpg) (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/sKyXbUx.jpg) Then this!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dash2.gif) The old rubber on the left side this time gave up after 17 years of hard work. So I went to the local shop and bought some new ones from Sachs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif) (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/avun3fm.jpg) Old rubber all smashed up (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/x1TEE1n.jpg) New rubber sits nice (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif) And last (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/Twl50Xw.jpg) Everyone with a lowered car should show it on their tires, not much but it's something (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) |

wow its coming along very nice, maybe you should consider getting an M3 front bumper or something, it still looks a bit plain now imo. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif)

Thank you very much (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif)
I'm thinking of both M3 front and rear bumpers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

IMO the M3 bumpers seem so generic and boring. A better alternative IMO would be an AC Schnitzer replica/stock bumper like this:
(IMG:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v420/trailerparkboy/acs-02.jpg) Also an Alpina lip would suit your rims quite nicely (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) (IMG:https://c1.staticflickr.com/7/6075/6117263809_d3c586a1b4_z.jpg) Also a nice comparison. For me the stock bumper with an added lip seems more classy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif) |

It has been raining all day long, so what to do?
You mount your steelies with 185 tires and 3bar/43.5psi and drive (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif) Went really good until this happend... (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/TBmbQWb.jpg) (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/yAMoeks.jpg) Luckily the car is just like before and no one got hurt, so after beeing pulled out of the mud I continued drifting (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toothygrin.gif) I'll upload a video of how it went after the offroad driving (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif) |

You should really learn more in parking lots and on closed roads or race tracks before. These things won't usually end nicely...

I have experience of driving and controling the car, this ''crash'' happend because I had a tiny bit too much speed into the corner and that can happen to anyone. I have practiced quite a lot on parking lots and with gocart in wet (I know it's not really the same, it's actually harder but the same basics) on track. I were supposed to get the video from my friend today but I didn't, I'll link it here as soon it's up on Youtube (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif)
