Oh, I see how it is.
Well, after parking next to Leo yesterday, really made it obvious how much of a wash she needed, so after a bath and some TLC, here are some happy snaps --

Start with the lights -

LED parkers, HID lows and fogs

LED boot strips

Another boot pic...looks nice though. Not sure why, but I like this one.

Aaaand some taken this afternoon -

Thanks again to Leo for those lights...loving them!

Looks good mate

Nice!! I got Leo to install some HID low beams but now have decided my fogs are too dim in comparison so am getting 3000K HID fogs

And what other plans do you have for the car?

I opted for 5000K low beams to get them as close to stock HIDs as possible but apparently white doesn't cut through fog at all, so hence the yellow

also Leo runs this set up I'm pretty sure so I'm gonna go round and have a look in the flesh before I buy

i thought the whole "yellow light cuts through fog" was just a myth? well, if leo says, then id do it! :wink:

Just did a bit of research, and I may stand corrected..but I still genuinely like the white/yellow mix!

I'm running 5000k fogs now.. Haven't hit any fog yet though :sad:

but driving the mountain each day I'm sure it will happen soon enough! I'll keep you posted on how they go.

Other mods...
Looking at quads - something that will put the nice growl into it. Any recommendations? I've heard TCPs stuff is decent.

Then, the costly work.
Aiming for a new front bumper, want to do SOMETHING with the grille but can't decide.
Rims, and coilovers to drop it a bit.

Also going to hit up some mates from one of the local car clubs about audio options, so may end up swapping out the fascia there too.

Too much stuff!

Wow Cameron .... the car look SO MUCH cleaner !! hahaha

TCP quads received and installed!

Thanks heaps to Tony, exactly the look I was after, with a nice tone as a bonus!
