[Paul.M]

Love your car bud looks awesome

 

[Chris205]

Looks great mate, love the smoothness, not too in your face but subtle enough to notice

Imo it needs the following:

Lower it another 20mm

Front tyres are crying out for some 165/40/16s (propper stretch)

and you desperately need to get some tyre gloss on there....PLEASE!

 

[beechey]

black wheels is needed to match that roof

Looks great matey.

+1 on why didn't you fancy smoothing the sidestrips?

 

[samoose]

Looks great matey.

+1 on why didn't you fancy smoothing the sidestrips?

as i personally think it looks better with the strips smoothed like they are i.e de-badged and if i got rid of the side strips completely then the door handles would look lost!

im only going for the cleaned look not full on smooth as fook euro styling as its still my daily!

 

[rsclio182]

i shal indeed!when and where?

ill also be attending trax with eu-mania so you can see it there
