quick update on progress! One of my sideskirts is on, other one going on tomorrow if weather is good. Front bumper has a grand total of 35mm ground clearance, so im getting a set of 17" fox gammas in anthra (on finance! lol) My exhaust doesnt fit through the rear bumper either, so im getting a different one of them too (plus its peco, so im pretty chuffed to be getting rid of it)! The rear bumper is going on anyway with a standard exhaust for now, and its all getting sprayed in about 10 days, so its gonna be a busy 2 weeks! Just thought id let u all know how its going. Im gonna be so skint for the next coupla months!

skirts are being blended into the arches when the wheels are on (arches have to be flared, so no point doing it now!) I changed my mind on the wheels too, it looks like im either getting BK240s or Toora platinum 5s or 8s

i figured it was better than a car wash! It needs a respray anyway, but i cant afford it, so i think ill take ur advice. Ive decided i definately want the BKs, i got to find a good price from somewhere now and order them asap.
