Black ! Fannytastic !!!!

 

[KrisG]

Not all of them, but this was during polishing and one looks shiny as hell all look like the shiny one now

 

[KrisG]

Hey guys got the alloys on today so will get a pic up later on

Quick question though. On a tightish budget and looking to get the car lowered, what would be better to buy just lowering springs or get a suspension kit ? Any recommendations on what make to buy. Saw a koni suspension kit on dcperformance.com but Dono how good they are

 

[edk]

Koni is awesome, if you mean the Yellow Sports. But for the price of the dampers, camber bolts, and lowering springs you might as well save for a little longer and buy coilovers imo.

Apex / Eibach / H&R lowering springs as a stop gap if you can't afford coilovers yet.

 

[KrisG]

Yea thinking apex or h&r. Maybe get them this month. Will they be ok on standard shocks ?

 

[edk]

For a little while.

[KrisG]

Yea coilies prob out my reach for now till i get a better job, so may just get the springs and then look into improving the shocks later on

Black looks great on the silver. Not a fan of the red Nissan on bonnet, I feel it clashes with the orange of the indicators.

Yea its coming along nicely. Just need to get it lowered next and windows tinted. Looking to put a ph 1 bumper on as well and try use ph 1 fox lights if i can get them to fit.

[KrisG]

Yea rather pleased with them, one has a few runs But can't complain for a first attempt :-D. Hopefully spraying the spoiler the same colour next year or sooner

 

[KrisG]

Small update on the car put some foot well lighting in as not being able to see the floor was annoying me. Also put in a clock with inside/out temp and battery voltage reader in where the stereo was and move the stereo down

 

[thanasis karakatsanis]

excellent job!!!!keep going, your car reminds me mine..........

 

[KrisG]

Cheers, hopefully doing the back seats and boot light the same

 

[KrisG]

hey guys anyone know if one of these bumpers would fit to the almera with a little moddification, not sure if its a leon ibiza or cupra one

 

[Hally]

The whole bumper?

[inahole]

Surely not.

 

[Liam]

This will bolt straight on.

 

[KrisG]

Yea the hole thing. Would have to check the length of it though
