Hi All..

Pretty new here to this site and im loving all the help and support u get so firstly thx for that..

Ok since owning my 182 i have never really contemplated doing it up but since coming here and seeing all these fine examples im already thinking about what i want to do !

All im after is peoples advice and maybe some pics/links on what looks good and what dont.. i dont want body kits as i think the 182 looks fine as it is. Im going to K-Tec on friday to get some springs.. I cant afford a complete lowering kit but im buying some springs to lower it 30mm all round so that should make a lil difference.. i cant go lower coz i have some mean speed humps in my road and really cant be assed with all the scraping.

Advice on rims and little neat details would be nice...

Thanks in advance

You probably wont even notice 30mm mate, best off going for more!

Seriously if i could i would... Maybe when i move in a couple of months i'll go much lower but seriously the speed humps where i live are massive !

Was thinking Anthracite turini's tbh but i dunno... I quite like the look of the Momo corse alloys on K-tec but not sure what they would look like on the car itself

Personally I would keep the standard wheels and get them powercoated, turinis do look nice but are very sheepish.

Popular mods are: Matched inlets, Panel Filter/Maxogen etc, de-cat and/or Exhaust System, RSTuner/RSTuning remap, Type R aerial, Cup front splitter, Coloured bullets, Silvervision 501 bulbs.. the list can be as long as you want it to be really

Currently running a powertec filer and it sounds really nice and as i say when im in K-tec on Friday i may get it Re-Mapped if funds allow.. Next month will prob be the carbon front splitter and stuff.. One of my anthracite cup alloys has a scratch on so a repair is in need but i dont want to go without the car as i need it daily so im just being lazy and thinking i wanna buy new wheels.. thx for the help though bud

40mm is the mininum for lowering really if you wanna make a difference.
the front wont go too low so speed bumps shudnt be a problem.
