90mm rears on, hard to tell in these pics, will get some more on a flat surface once theyve settled in a bit.

You spraying the lower door cards white? Sure I spy them in the pic of the cesaros being sprayed white!


I dunno what models it would apply to but as mines is an SXI i lifted the carpet, and the plug for the heated seats is there, its just taped up in the loom, carefully cut back the tape with a blade to reveal the plug and loom, fed it thru the 'gash' thats already in the carpet under the seat, plug into seat, pop off the wee panel on the centre console, push buttons into place & hey presto !!!


I have white lower doorcards but i have got as much standard plastic inside as i have at the moment, as i'm undecided what colour to go inside !!!

Doesn't look 90 on the rear at all in fairness!

Pictures dont do it justice, i'm not too convinced there 90 springs myself, more like 80s. I'll let them settle down first.

Not going down the full GSi kit route, too played out, steinmetz sideskirts & a plate recess in my back bumper is on the cards, and morettes

On a side note i am runnin 195-45s most cars ive looked at down 90 are on 16s.

Cheers

Bumpers going to be recessed in the new year, probably gonna go with an anthracite for the interior plastics it feels boring inside with the standardness !
