Ever thought about removing the rear wiper?.
Like what I've done with mine

Otherwise I agree it's one of the nicest ones I've seen, a good example of what I would like mine to look like in the near future.

Yeah, 16" with 195/40 tyres. It's lowered 70mm, no arch work. The only time I've had scrubbing is when I had 3 passangers and I went around a long sharp bend a bit too fast and it caught a bit at the back - it also randomly catches at the front right arch sometimes, 9 times out of 10 it won't though.
K thanks. thats really good i would of expected more scrubbing. Really like the rear badge too, nice touch :)

They're a pretty small company I think yeah, they're a brokers so find insurance through other companies (although they know their stuff)

That's who I'm now with.
