and here is where i'm at, after buying the car completely stock and telling all my mates that was how it was going to stay ( who was i kidding :lol: ) of course i couldn't help but throw a little bit of money on it.. the first pic is how i bought it...
Image

Then i picked up the front lip from ultrex, also plan on changing the grille hopefully soonish and some rims thanks to Tech 9 Tyres, speedy fins 18 inch

Image

I then ordered some BC coilovers ( Br series ) from 'Just Jap' ( highly recommend these guy's if any else was interested, great product, great to deal with, speedy delivery)

Image

And with the coilovers fitted.. which i did myself just this morning, goes in for a wheel alignment this arvo, the final product , sorry about the average pics and yes the car is certainly due a wash :D

I like the Ultrex lip especially on black - looks good.

Nice job with it. :)

looks great mate the lip really does set it off, cant wait to get mine.

makes me a little sad actually, to see your car in black sitting all nice and flush like that (yes i have the same wheels).

Bit of an update :)

Getting my coilovers fitted next friday mate!

just wondering if you had to do any guard rolling with yours that low? Because I'm not 100% sure if I need it or not!

nice, bet your stoked.... yeh i rolled the front and rear guards, probably could of got away with just doing the rears but did them both anyway, a lot will have to do with your wheel offset though, obviously mine aren't too aggressive so the wheels tuck under the gaurd rather than stick out
