rubbed down fox wheels ready to refurbish them ready to sell, also just done oil change on corsabrava and engine sound much nicer now guess it was long overdue an oil change!

i really wish i could spend the money on some coilovers and get the back even lower, cos its not touching anything as it is.......just like a normal 60ml drop! there is space to go lower, or as it is will be practial for everyday but looks stupidly low!

it does look lower cos front is jacked up, gonna smoke a set of lights for the photo shoot,
