well i finally got them on and surprisingly they went straight on! i have took the inner plastic mouldings out though well the front 2 any way! have to admit taking a sharp turning and hitting a bump you can hear a scrape but a little arch modding will soon sort that out!, any way i have pics on this link at the modified national show a couple of weeks ago!.

now have to fit my c-west style carbon front lights which have waited for weeks!!  any idea how much i could get for my pop up lights any one?.

jesus christ I thought mine scraped with 18\'s, that must hurt when you go over a pothole etc ! :)

ha ha nah my eyes are all ways on the lookout, its funny the way i zig zag on the road to avoid every bump possible and then when i stop at the lights the person behind me looks at me like im drunk!!!!.

Donato

Know what you mean mate, I have ohlins coilovers so have to avoid pebbles never mind potholes! ;)

Silly question, but why do it?

The ride goes to pot, handling benefits are dubious at best, unsprung weight has probably gone up and tyres are more expensive.

davefrith

I don\'t think he was thinking about the handling when he put them on, more for shows

yeah ya right i bought them mainly for shows!, i am after some standard 16\'s now for USC at santa pod in august. To be honest im getting used to them now and it aint that bad!, well worth it i think.
well considering i still live at home and only pay 20 quid a week lodge!!!!.

davefrith

ha ha just wait till you move out mate ! :)

Ah, you inhabit an alien world to me. I will only change things on my car if it makes it faster/better handling.  Looks are the  lowest priority for my projects.

When\'s your birthday Bill?

I\'m getting you some Neons and washer jets with lights on them
:rollin

I have the necessary proof of their benefit if you are in doubt  ;)

Washer jet? By my birthday I will running an aeroscreen. Saves nearly 40kgs by the time you have removed screen, wipers, motors, water bottle etc.

Plus you improve drag and get to wear a crash helmet all the time.
