    Haha! I haven't cleaned it in about 2weeks :( been busy! Maybe tomorrow after gym! It looks lower in the picture because of the angle in the flesh its a tiny bit higher, I've left the front about 25mm from the bottom and rears about 15-20mm from the bottom, if in person it sits as it looks in...

    Thanks! Yeah, it just needs the aero now, spoiler at a minimum but tyres, spacers and brakes are next in line before that. And thanks I couldn't find videos of anyone who had done it before and got the decay for £20 of here so thought why not! Sound great, I still managed 32-33mpg to work on the...

    Haha dw the linglong was on the spare wheel, it's only on there while I do the last wheel, it came with Dunlop sp sport max or something along those lines on all four corners, I was planning on getting some nankang ns2 r through you but think I've left it a bit late, I imagine they aren't great...

    thats why i love it! i was on the hunt for some cup racers but this will do for now as coilovers are taking priority over wheels. my front left spring has snapped, cup racers will be one of my next purchases though

    The flexi pipes on the old manifold were knackered, as you can see from the picture the outside completely came off. It sounds much better! Gives it a deep more purposeful sound and a few pops but only when you give it a bit, otherwise its pretty quiet. The build quality on it was decent as...
