    Hey mate, Couple of Q's

    What brand Coilovers are you running, how are they?
    Have you rolled your arches?
    Who recon your bumpers and howmuch? Did you already have your end caps or did you buy them?

    Thanks!!!

    Phil

    hey man,

    running JOM coilovers. they are really really great. i've driven a polo with D3's before (correct me if i'm wrong steph) and i much prefer the JOM's.. but it is quite skateboard-ish, as you can feel every twig you drive over! hahaha

    I folded the little edge of my guards up to allow room for my wheels without scraping

    Micra Bodyworks in launceston tasmania did the bumpers. my best mates dad owns it so it cost me very very very little.. but he is very talented.. seeing as he did it all without needing to repair chrome.. all hammer and dolly baby!!! good as new.

    End caps came with the car when i got it. which was very lucky! so i sanded them back and gave em a quick spray with satin black paint- good as new!

    Going to be flaring guards with a new paint job within the next six months or so.. cause i wanna run fat wheels with minimal police attention

    Keep tuned, this thread will be taking off with in the next month or so.. lots planned....

    -duckbill spoiler
    -full 2" straight through exhaust from manifold
    -respray
    -seats recovered
    -custom head unit mount (this one will be very cool and unique)
    -full sound system
    -16v - twin carbies if i can find one...
