First things first... hello  i havnt actually posted pics of my car before and only because i was talking to jadyn (mk4_boy) and he persuaded me... lol.. so this is todays input from me..
im welcome to opinions from everyone.. hope you enjoy..
First of all it started like this... a dirty car... which hasn't changed in a while...
After a 300 mile round trip from kent to stourbridge... and meeting a fellow CS member.. parting with a bit of cash i ended up with these beauty's...
(note the cup of tea as it was early this morning! lol)
Front up....
Using the two jack method of course...
Fronts on..
Rears up... Camberlicious 
Fronts done....
Whislt walking past the front of the car to get the centre caps... i remembered that i wanted to change my wiper from my cheap poverty spec one that came with my single wiper to a flat blade one i had kicking about in my garage..
BEFORE
AFTER
Wipes much better... not sure on looks though... what you think??!?
Back to the subject on hand anyways lol... Centre Caps on...
The finished article....
My garage... full of parts and bits and bobs that i should really move to put my car in there... anyone want to buy anything? lol 
Then... because i had the camera out i got in pic whore mood and here is a few other random shots to have a look at...
anyways... hope this works lol... 
What you lot think?

It was a spur of the moment decision on the wheels... but i really like them... makes it different to anything round my way...
plus yes it does have rear springs... just about lol.. but it has loads of movement in the rear shocks till you get to the bump stops... so its all good!
and the sun strip... personal preference i spose.. i still like sunstrips... others dont... meh... nothing much else to say on that =P

Certainly different  If you get bored you can always swap them back. What does it matter trying something different for a while?
But i must say, that sunstrip
