Defo time for some BC's

Looking good though, although I couldn't do it given my luck with kerbing wheels

Are your k-sports factory red or did you repaint them

I spotted that they do a metallic red as an option now so I was wondering if that is what you had

dont think removing the flaps would do much. if you want even wider look, get some spacers on also lol

loving them in dark above

And then go and see ABW for one of his wide-arch kits, it would suit you bumper and skirts

Surely not, thinking about the HT Auto's one myself, but it's a lot of work on the rear arches, may just keep it subtle and stick with a respray, but engine and brakes to sort first

Liking it.

I'd loose the mudflaps. Once your lower they will just get worn out or you'll end up running over them when you reverse up an incline

Wait until those Coilys are on and your bouncing all over the place

You must have been running some quite high tyre pressures not to notice much of a difference in the ride
