before & after

Did u make it to GAf on the weekend?

[Rybky]

that is the best! exactly how i want mine to be

Really?? That rear wheel not sitting central in the arch would bug the hell out of me.

perfect height IMO
it's threads like these that make me wish i didn't chance it with a set of springs...
actually hang on a sec, it's not perfect height, it's sitting lower in the rear? or you just carrying round some dead hookers?

i did make it to gaf - but my car was sitting in the library car park haha. was there for maybe an hour that audi R8 was amazing, there was some nice cars around.

yeh i do have some dead hookers in the back - nah the fronts do need to come down a little.

but for right now next project is refurbishing those bbs so i can get them on the car.

offset of the bbs areeee... fronts 8" et 43 rears 9" et 40, my adapters are an inch thick so they should just sit a little outside. will look awesome tho.

any more on those RS? should be good offsets after adapters, rears will sit in 5mm more then mine (probably a good thing) fronts will match

not saying your wrong, but imagine what he car would look like rocking a undersized rear tyre like that, centred in the arch and silly low.
Think i prefer the pushed forward look for some reason (don know why though...)

been a long time since i posted stuff on my car, so just an update - the bbs have been refurbished by bboysparxx and dylan8 has provided me with the tyres which will be going on the bbs.

its slowly coming together, also purchased these lower valances from srs-tec




will be getting these on wednesday and having it fitted and painted next week. hoping that these have good fitment! but will keep everyone updated.

[dylan8]

those valances are going to look awesome!!! Nice choice

[geoff_gti]

they look fantastic, fills out the bumpers perfectly!

I look forward to seeing the srs-tec kit and bbs wheels on your car - if you get it to look like those photos above then it should look pretty awesome.

[florantonio]

k so my parts arrived from srs-tec here are some pics of the valances i ordered. will test fit them and get them painted next week.






also had the front lowered a little, trying to fix the reverse rake.

[McDub]

should be hot. from memory ACT's roads are pretty good? (just thinking of scraping that front valance)

[florantonio]

Act roads are reasonably good! But I guess we will see how it goes after the are fitted haha.

[florantonio]

got my car back from the body shop today.

had the votex side skirts and srs-tec front and rear valances painted and fitted with no problems
