Fitted some Aero wipers and they are amazing!
Well the front dropped a bit since adjusting the height when fitting the wheels, car is currently 60-65mm off the ground and im not even close to having the front wheel arch gap as small as id like. Cant go any lower as i already can no longer park in the beach car park and even scrap the front skirt getting in to my own car port.
Will be keeping it as is for a while and then swapping to 18' lips and barrels if its my budget (and possible to find). Will be aiming for a 18x7.5 or 8 up front and 18x9.5 or 10 out back if it goes ahead

My two jobs... Main wage is for a house, the part time job is play money and other!Originally posted by Yevvy View Postsweet!!! now where is that money tree you've found?
Cheers.Originally posted by Water Boy View PostMate that looks phat as! All the bogans in b-town must nearly break their necks when they see this roll by.
Whats the spec of your RS?
HAHA pretty much, i keep getting asked what happened to the nice wheels you had (my A8s) and why did you change?
Only two people i know locally approve, and one of them is me!
17x7 and 17x9. they are a jap spec similar to someone posted in the ebay section. So adapters are being used at the moment. But when i come to change them ill be drilling the flat back pair to 5 x 100
Not sure if i posted before but i went 195/45/17 and 205/45/17 S Drives. ~$750 AU posted from AUS. So cheap

Nar not yet... I really just wanted them on in the end, they look ok from 1.5m+ away hahaOriginally posted by Water Boy View PostThats sweet as man! Did you get them polished up?
I have just been putting that time i would have spent polishing into working so i can buy the new bigger and better lips and barrels.
I may still pull them apart and have a crack at polishing, but really ill just be looking to have the new bits on and done by DOVW/Summer

Yeah someone else suggested that, might have a crack, cheers.Originally posted by Water Boy View PostAhhh good man! Im sure some autosol and a rag would do wounder for them still on the car.

i've actually got all the badges, i left one off because it was lose and i was scared it would fall out. Im attempting to glue the broken clip as I write this.
Or did you mean for some new special ones?
Im also glad I didnt paint the centres while i had the chance, and kept them OEM looking like you suggested. So thanks for that!

Light steering is right! It is a nice feeling thoughOriginally posted by Mrk_Mickey View PostThat looks great man, well done
shame your fronts are only 7 but hey, lighter steering
hehehe
I did actually think that at one stage regarding the lips. I have 4x1degree shims sitting here next to me. So itll all be happening eventually.Originally posted by Jarred View Postrear lips on the fronts, new lips for the back + some camber = AMAZING!!1!!1!!111!!one!!1!11!!!

Cheers! I think there is still some nicer ones. forexamples Silver dubs and a few of you guys in sydney look good from the photos iv seen.Originally posted by goodfella View PostThis is becoming one of the nicest Bora's getting around... looks like the country girls fancy it too:

Thing is other then the wheels its been done on the cheap (nasty coilovers and no performance mods), and also the paint work and interior isnt crash hot when you see it in person.
There is so much more id like to do to it but id rather save for something nicer/rare and keep this as a daily as it suits my current life perfectly. Not saying I will stop throwing all money at it though
