Been on here for while now so i should probably put up a few pics.

It started out life as a 4 x 4, can't believe how long i ran standard suspension

Image

Image


Then got some AP coilovers and a jom airblade, and lowered it as much as i could without getting a new ARB

Image

Image

Image


Got new wheels, 9x18 rear and 8x18 front bbs ch and a genuine rear anni valance

Image

Image


I have genuine anni skirts to go on and looking for a genuine front anni splitter (cause i'm a sheep!) and a few other bits to go on
I'll put up more pics when i clean it...

all comments welcome

Thanks for all the comments. Knew I'd get mixed reviews about the wheels, they have grown on me and I like them, and the r32 reps weighed a ton!
I'll get some beter pics up soon, after this crazy weather clears!

@shaun I would deffinitely recomend the ap's for the money and the comfort is suprisingly good, even the missus doesn't give out about it
The only problem I have is adjusting the rears, it's a nightmare!

Have been debating going for a badgeless front but still undecided, opinions? It's not something u can change back easily after filling the bonnet....

Cheers

My rears are an awful pain to adjust too. Got some funny looks from the neighbours when I was doing it the last time.

I'd personally say no to the badgeless grill. I've always despised them. I think the standard grill with a black badge is far tidier. As you said though, it can be easily changed back if you dont like it

Also want to fix the vac leak that keeps coming back
