Another Quick update!
Decided that i quite fancied some professional tints all round.
So took it too 'OG tinting'
Did the whole lot today. 40 - backs / 35 - fronts
Looks really nice & subtle. There still moist at tha mo. Pics tomorrow.
Whilst i was waiting we de-wipered the back,
Also A friend of mine was selling an amp... But not just any amp.
Its a marks & spen.. Lol! .. Nah its a Audison SRX2
What you think? 200? 250? ..
£40! Sold! Anyways, i shall wire that up and sort some comps out next!
Sorry its long read pics will be worth it tho
Andy

The wicked reds dont look right fully colour coded, go gloss or satin black for the bump strips

vmax coilovers arent very good tbh, if u go low with them ull have problems, there just rebadged raceland stuff!
Seen 9's on a saxo afew time aint to wide if u get the offset right and maybe abit of tyre stretch. Tbh though wide 16's dont look right on a saxo, ill try & dig up a pic from years back of a silver vtr/s on 16" Keskins, with 9's on the rear. Looks good when zoomed into the wheels but looks to tractor like when viewed as a whole. Narrow borbet a's work becasue u can still drop the car enough by tucking the wheels, like jamie OLD vts or yorkies car. The guy who had the saxo ended up selling it and putting them on a new fez!
