Been A While...

Alot has happened really I suppose, the full detail I had (clicky), Edition38 and of course me being inside at Players!

I felt the need for coilovers, so they arrived this week! Dan & I fitted them and got her down a little bit more, lovely height now with no arch gap but nothing silly!

Took the red tape off the front grill too, after all, it's not a GTi! :p

Other than that, just been really looking after her and pimpin hard!

Enjoy the pictures, all nice comments welcome! :p

Car pornography! :D :D

Really nice lowering with those coils. Are they the TA Technix ones? How are they relating to ride stiffness? No tyre overwear?

Cheers Kim! :)

Thank you very much! :)

Yes they are TA Technix, the ride is actually really good, a little bouncy but ive took the helpers out to get it that little bit lower so it's expected really!

Just need tracking and balancing done!

Lovely example of a 9N2 Kim! :) Well done. Loving the LM's...considering getting myself a set (unfortunately the replica's as the real LM's aren't avail. in South Africa)...well, trying hard not to think about touching my Sportline in any way for a while.

Looking very nice, the stance is great in the last pic. That detail you had done sure was worth it
