Yep - new ride

New Debut!!

Had for a couple of weeks - just wanted to wait till Richard got the new wheels in for the Nationals.

All the benefits of Porsche without the 5 bolt expense!

Looks nice Barry, real nice. First pics I've seen of your new ride...she looks pretty straight. You going to keep the rims as is or get them polished sometime?

the rain and pics dont do these wheels justice

they have polished outside rims and real shiny/deep grey on the spokes and the rest.

Richard has them in "all polished" as well = i think?? Alex???

LOVE them they way they are.

Going to have this baby at the nats.
You can have a look there and we can sneek off to the "quiet room" for a sherbert and discuss things there.

It has all been a bit quick

The front is perfect.
WHEN the wheels are square they fill the guards perfectly. As i said b4, it is raining and i just wanted some quick snaps

The back needs tocome down.

I need to replace the torsion bar gromments so i will do it then.

I dont looked "sik - bro, dumped!!" It more looks HSV lowered type subtle stance

I is VERY HAPPY with the out caome

It's got to be just low enough so there isn't a big colour ring around the wheel from the inside of the guard. My opinion only🙂 I'm just excited coz I'm gettin a set of V-Force struts in the mail real soon! Can't wait!

Agreed... that is how the front looks.

The back needs to be dropped a bit to over come that.

PS

You getting the camber thingies as well????

Hi Barry

They look great, just need to give those brake drums a lick of paint. If the rest of the car is as clean as under the mudguards it must a very clean car.
