He px'd his AE86 for it, somehow the bloke though the 'rolla was worth 6k when it was bought for under 4, so my mate was onto a winner from the start!
Not seen it yet, but might this weekend so I'll...
MY mate picked up his this week, silver UK car, slammed on coilovers with black standard wheels, 450bhp with a huge single turbo!
His new drift car, he's only 20 :(
Pays the same as I'm about to pay to insure my 182 as well :(
Yeah i like that one too :)
Just same shampoo and an old washmitt, they were powdercoated only a few weeks ago so was nothing too major, just rubbed straight off!
99% it wasn't a bike, as this is a seerate off site carpark, bikes part on site.
Was something blue as there were blue marks on the bumper.
Re re wheels, might look better if they were a proper colour then it might be better.
Won't be going back to them lol!
Will get them done pro instead of a backstreet place, get what you pay for and all that...!
It is a really bad finish, had to accept them though as I had sold my other wheels, bad times.
At least they are clean though ;)
Thanks for the comments.
Wheels are a dodgy shade of silver/white because my powdercoaters fucked up (long story!) not sure whether to go anthracite or high power silver, but no money at the minute so will have to stay as they are for now.
If I find out who has caused the bump then I will...
Gave it a good going over today, wheels off, arches a quick scrub, EGP'd the wheels etc.
Also got out the results of a hit and run in my works carpark yesterday, gutted when someone asked me if I'd crashed my car, ran outside and it was there with no-one to be seen, no note, nothing reported...
I covered my old ones in copper slip, EVERYTHING stuck to it!
I bought some teflon dry push bike chain lube spray stuff, seemed to work better as it sprays on dry.
Changes were due to getting decent deals on the coilovers, but back to sportlines as i needed the AST money for my R6 that I bought.
The sportlines make my car faster and better on the road, no doubt about it. On a smooth road the coils would be a lot better, but how many of them do we have...
In my opinion better than coilies, but on track coils will come into their own.
A few old ones of mine, before and after:
And a recent one of it now, but not the best pic:
Go for the sportlines mate, subtle drop which looks nicer but not obviously lowered.
I had sportlines, then went through 2 sets of coilovers which were both over 1k's worth, and now i'm back with sportlines wondering why i ever swapped!
