Hi Derek,

Fellow shadow blue owner here  :smiley:

Just out of interest, how come you didn't get your original Monza's refurbed with the black inserts?

I'm getting mine done this week with the black inserts :driver:

well had my wheels fitted this morning so it was an excuse to have a clean and a little polish.

Looks 10 times better than it did, and am happy with the qaulity of the wheels. Wasnt too sure when i bought them what they would be like!

another little update,

just ordered some H&R springs. Got them from orange tuning which seem to be the cheapest place around. Will hopefully get them fitted this week so will add some new pics.

This modding malarky is exciting  :grin:

Well fitted my H&Rs last week, no pics as of yet but i love it, better handling and looks sweet too.

I also have replaced my DV, felt like i was down on power so whipped it out to check and low and behold the diaphragm was split.



Took it for a spin after fitment and it feels like a totally different car!   :driver:
