so as you lot know i had 2 bald tyres, so while i got some part worns i got this done...
but the thick fucks didnt remove the weights
also thought the black calipers looked shit with black wheels so painted them
somehow managed this
refitted the newly black strut brace
and walla
the rear is still sitting high probably due to being jacked up, also my spare is in a sean_ps car for some reason lol, car needs a wash and yes i know im shit at painting, theyre temp till i get brembos anyways.
thoughts?
next jobs are gloss vinyl between windows and 15/20 mm rear spacers then thats pretty much the outside finished

mate ive already sold them, but a lad on dub north east is selling them for 30 quid a set, theyre of suziki swifts
yes heat proof paint from halfords, although hammerite still does the same job
and the snaped bolt came out with some grips quite easily

FLOL at "then" being the key word, its the wrong word! It doesn't make bloody sense.
I initially read it as "looked so much better then, when they were white"
he meant to say "looks so much better THAN when they were white"
Cars nice btw, too low though.
