Well after nearly four hours of freezing my nipples off, and the use of a couple of Jacks, big spanners and the most patient mechanic I know, we finally got them on, they are a bit low at the back and will need adjusting upward rather than downwards, but for now they will do. Back to the garage tomorrow for some raisng and lowering here and there but it takes time to get these things right.
Ill put some pics up in the morning of how it went and how low it looks now:thumb: |

^^^ nice one:luxhello:
Car is looking good by the way! |
Very nice and good choice on the mods. Although i'm not a fan of aftermarket bodykits in the main, i would have liked to see how the rear would have looked with the rear bumper skirt you had before still on when lowered, i think it may have suited the spoilerless and low look quite well. You still got it to try or sold on?

Well then guys and dolls, apart from the Defi gauges (copies) an toiling with the idea of getting the scoop carbon wrapped its finished. decided to ditch the airbag interior and went for genuine V7 STI front and rear, still waiting on door cards bt you get the idea, steering wheel works well and is a little smaller than the standard Momo one, only by a small difference though, but noticeable. Carbon fibre rear spoiler was fitted today with the help of Carmoster, Cheers Rich. Wasnt to sure about it at first but no its on and having looked at the NASIOC site, im glad i chose to fit it. So heres some pics
