Lowered smileys/happy.gif - Looks yummy,

Well now i need to say thanks to GS motorsport, He managed to mess my order up and tell me he had the shocks i needed in stock when they were already being used. BUT, instead he sent me some better ones for the same price. So thanks GS smileys/happy.gif.

I dont plan to, why should i if it's what i like?...

And i think it look's fine, it's better than having 2 shiny chrome chevrons shining at the front. Thats my opinion.. your entitled to yours of course.

i think it looks alreet mate, its different its good.
i htink it might look cool without the spoiler on it, unless ur the devil smileys/smiley17.gif
nice wheels

James
2nd February 2006, 20:34
I asked them to get the spoiler off but they cant, The only way thats possible is if i get a new tailgate and have that fitted.

2nd February 2006, 20:36
ah well it still looks good mate like u said its yours and if you like it thats all that matters, you done any engine mods

James
2nd February 2006, 20:38
Havent touched the engine yet hehe, I don't plan to for a while. Insurance will be a problem if i start doing that hehe smileys/happy.gif

are u gettin rid of that kit?

he will when he goes over a speed bump....

lights look smart on your car....

i can handle your car and you know i dont like kits, but that front bumper holy shit - do you get much work as a snow plough in this weather?!

u planning on new wheels

James
2nd February 2006, 20:51
The wheels are newsmileys/smiley3.giflol never fail to offend me !, There allot better then the chromes i had.... Well i think anyway....

Ill probally get some new wheels before fcs, Hard trying to find a nice set what will suit with the kit though.

2nd February 2006, 20:53

2nd February 2006, 21:23

if you change the front bumper to something more round and get rid of the spoiler i will like it alot smileys/smiley17.gif

James
2nd February 2006, 21:29
Yea i do want rid of that spoiler lol, Got to find me a new tailgate before i can even think about it though. As for the front bumper i kind of like it smileys/smiley17.gif

I think its disgusting ... however .. there was a time when i was young and i was into kits on cars, i managed to kit my 1.1 and it looked uber shite lol .. i like the side skirts mind and those lights are sweet and the colour yum yum.. and as everyone seems to be moaning today if you dont like my opinion then fuck it aint it lol its your car and you make it how you want it not anyone else!

James
2nd February 2006, 22:11
pug_boe i love your opinion smileys/happy.gif, It means allot. At least your honest, lol im sure with age there will come a time in my life when i hate hits as well smileys/happy.gif

2nd February 2006, 22:24
YYeah mate are your lights just lexus lights sprayed up???

my opinion is, you mod your car to the way 'YOU' want it,not to the way other people want it.....if they dont like it fuck em. I wouldnt take anything off my car because someone else didnt like it

James

you either have had it lowered 45mm and stuck alot of stuff in the boot.. or you have had the back lowered about 90-100mm!! lol

i like it as it is mate! keep it that way and horrify a few of these subtle lovers smileys/smiley17.gif i think the back end of it looks nice, a little unsure of the front bumper though! keep it as it is and get yourself on the sax-p stand at fcs think it would look great! id hate too see a lineful of subtle styled saxos! a bit of variarty (spelling) is whats best imo

Looks good cloud, but be careful with those skirts. I managed to crack mine after just 3 days while trying to get into a McDonalds drive thru (most expensive drive thru ever smileys/smiley17.gif)

Not too keen on the wheels tbh and I'd change the mirrors but other than that looking good smileys/smiley20.gif

It's 45mm all round i think, Thats what i told the bodyshop to do, No idea if they have done it more smileys/smiley17.gif

Can't b 45mm surely. Mine is 40mm and isn't nearly as low as yours at the back smileys/smiley5.gif

James
3rd February 2006, 00:52
Thank's dsh85 and puzzledzippy,

Also dsh85 i suppose theres nothing wrong with being different smileys/happy.gif

Im thinking DTM mirrors Certifiable, hehe as for the skirts im sure ill have many problems now! But ah well you cant have an OTT kit and an easy life smileys/happy.gif. As for the front head lights im not to sure what to do with those smileys/happy.gif any ideas?

Yea your right, I told him to do it 45mm. When i seen it the first thing i said was 'Thats allot lower than what i expected'. But hey I think it looks great like that, not to sure if it's going to rub like a bitch yet... so i lil drive will be in order tommorow.

defiently smoked mate! would look nice with the black mesh smileys/smiley20.gif

Certi
3rd February 2006, 00:56
DTMs will look good. Get yourself some airbag suspension for the skirts smileys/smiley2.gif . As for the headlights you could either hold off for the angel eye mk2s when they eventually get released, get morrettes or spray the inside of your standard lights green (just an idea) or get them smoked

puzzledzippy
3rd February 2006, 00:56

James
3rd February 2006, 01:05
Certifiable i love the front end of you car dude, looks so mean smileys/smiley17.gif. The thing is GS said the springs he sent me can only go down 40 - 50 mm i remember correctlly.

Certi
3rd February 2006, 01:07

Looks so much better, now its lowered, but there is no way the rear is 45mm. lol

Like the rear lights too.

Not a fan of the front bumper or the spoiler.

James
4th February 2006, 02:16
Allot of people have now said they arn't a fan of the front bumper hehe, Looking at it more closely i can see why....

I dont suppose anyone could think of a front bumper what would fit with the kit do they?
