    Quick Update HELP

    New wheels and Ground Control Camber tops arrived the other day thanks to samuel wood

    Specs on the wheels
    Genuine Azev Type B
    5x130
    18x9.5 Square - Unknown Offset but will measure soon
    215x40r18

    got a text from my mother

    " when did you buy new wheels ?, theres no space in the garage for 5 sets of wheels Brad.... "





    Ignore the mess of the house, renovations are almost over






    I really love the design of these and even the little detail of having Azev with the Diamond Stamped on the wheels, just rad









    Will mount them up soon, i have 30mm Adapters on the way thanks to Wheelmods.com.au






    Hoping to install the Camber Tops from ground control this week
    and then mount the wheels up when the adapters arrive

    Part number is Product SKU #CCPA4
    http://www.ground-control-store.com/products/description.php/II=653/CA=88



    I won't be able to do much until the reno's are finished and until i move, as my garage is full of Building materials and stuff for the house, so hoping the garage will be empty soon for the open houses and in-between open houses i can get the car in and out and get the camber tops in


    Also have Bora R Side Skirts coming in from a mate in the states sometime this week or next

    my volks after i refurbished them






    then the wheels on the car a few pics of the burnt guards







    The majority of the stickers are off the car now the martini one was a joke sticker, and the passion banner is now off as well so is my Defyallodds rear banner as well


    Dubkorps sent me some stickers to cover up my rear guards





    and the Hella Clears i will take some better photos later once the new wheels are on








    So now, until i finish my HSC trials this is how the car will sit until i start doing some more work on the car.







    my mate from germany who i got the Hella's off also sent me some stickers, so i covered up the other burn marks with them




    car will stay on stocks til my wheels get here which will be 18x9.5 square

    Thats all i can think of right now i guess

    now onto the car

    day i picked the car up




    got my new BC BR Coils straight from DUBTUNED




    cleaned the bay up a little - Painted the engine cover to match the bay ( keep it clean look ) and then my mate james did a home hydro dip job which actually came out pretty awesome and sortve matching my woodgrain trim




    Nickmk1's mk1 caddy 20vturbo both of the rigs at HOUSE OF VW



    Then after putting big holes in 2 alloy mk4 sumps i moved to a 12v vr6 mk3 steel sump and it saved me heaps !!
    still going strong even after a few sparks and harsh driving




    painted my other 4motion lip white and put it on and will be painting my rear valance the same. the finish came out really **** imo, when i repaint both lips i will be sure to sand waaaay more and put a heavy primer on so the paint doesn't chip and crack.
