Havent updated this in a while! quite alot has happened.
Had the TSW's refurbed




But i still wasnt happy with the look of it so decided to get rid and replace them with these.



Sits so much better from the rear but cant help thinking i have too much arch gap, even though the underside of the car is sat on the floor. Maybe bigger tyres are needed, currently running 205/35 on 8.5 rim. Any help/feedback appreciated!!

Good colour choice! I'de say get a black grill on the front for a bit of contrast...as far a wheels go I'm having my standard GT ones refurbed and sprayed until I decide!
Looking for some BBS CH/LM Reps to swap for my Classix plus cash your way:
