[AhmedRSi]

[JCC]

Ahh you're back again. What happened to the silver RSI you had?

 

[AhmedRSi]

nothing wrong with the exhaust

 

[K80 NCH]

the 182 bumper is finally on just needs apaintin

 

[Russ_16v]

it will need to come off to paint it mate?

Would have been worth waiting till it was painted.

also thats a 172 bumper, the 182 have the 2 cut outs for the exhaust, unless they have been filled

 

[Russ_16v]

Also if your fitting springs, unless your shocks are new i would fit new shocks too, the extra pressure on them from the springs being lower will make it feel like a jellyed eel.

Dont forget new top mounts and bearings too

If money isn't in short supply then why on earth would you be starting out with that car????

If you're just one of these crazy mofo's who can turn a shitter into a minter and you want to throw KKKK's at it then fair enough... but i don't understand that.

You're 21? And you can't get insured on a 172???? That suprises me.

why buy an expensive car and throw money at tht coz you all do it
its not a shitter just needs a lick of paint tbh
