Looks awesome tbh, that exhaust sits really nice now, also love it on factory standard rims at the height.

Nice little story :D

And a great little car, how did you do the engine? Just by polishing? Is so how long did it take?
 
  None
Well made thread Daz, i was wondering how much work had gone into getting the 172 to look that good, i'd agree with Jim, probably the best example i have seen, good work mate :)
 
  Expert HDI & R53
Jorden172 - Puma extra low springs from Larkspeed 30mm iirc

Gaz - Coilovers FTW best upgrade possible coming from someone who rolled with lowering spring!!

Cheers again to all that has commented. :)
 
  Expert HDI & R53
UPDATE

Been rear ended again, nothing major just scratches..Another £150 coming my way LOL

Seriously women cant drive!
 
  None
Bad luck Daz mate :(

+1 on the women drivers, never trust anyone who won't turn their head to reverse!
