Then had my front grill painted
Next was the Non Alf Headlights with 6000k Hid Kit.

Then decided I wanted wider wheel on the rear so I got 9J with 215 35 18 Uniroyal tyres.
Stretchhhhhh
Then the coilovers came the day after trax
VXD Dial card & SMD
The car now currently looks like this! Yeaah I also have a bit of camber
Now here's for the random photo's in no order.
Yeaah I know the photo's aren't the best quality but I guess you get the idea
looks class mate! does that camber make it handle differently at all? how about the wear on the tyres? how did you get the camber like that? as i said, absolutely class!

Cheers . I wouldn't say that handling isn't bad atall. I may say lightly better. But I say this but technically it should make it worse but I won't mention much as everyone will comment saying blah blah blah but tbf I haven't noticed much. Well for the camber iv got washers behind the hub...camber shims are Crap broke straight away and the technical term for how much camber iv got is 3 washers not noticed anything with tyres yet but probs won't last long haha! :lol:
i love camber but i think that is a bit to much camber on the rear tbh,
i want it on my car my self. but that is crazy, especially as its been done on washers.
p.s.
if you camber the front i think it would actuly look spot on just been re looking at the pic and i think its coz there is nothing on the front that makes the rear look too much
