Weeell, just a wee update to say that my car passed its mot, all that I know of so far that i needed was new rear discs and pads (sorted myself), new num plates and a wheel bearing, so all good and hopefully coilovers on next week!

[X895INVER]

Just a wee update, aint been able to much past few days. Changed the oil, oil filter today with a semi synthetic 10w-40
Got coilovers booked in but wont be gettin done for 2 weeks, so until then il be spending no money and gettin some more diy jobs done!

Getting coilovers fitted on Wednesday. Hopefully Friday Il be getting black angels and carbon mirror caps. Also thinking on Gettin spoiler and grille sprayed gloss black.

*BUMP*

[X895INVER]

Well, yet again aint had time to get onto the computer recently. I went and got my coilovers fitted on Wednesday and Im well pleased with the look. Iv had it dropped 60 all round, nice round corners and looks mint but its just the bumpy parts thats annoyin... Its worth it! With it dropped 60 i took off my front mudflaps buts had left the back ones on but cut shorter (may take them off later!)
Also got headlights and carbon mirror caps on order. So with more jobs this week hopefully il have another update soon.

let me know what you think!
