My sort-of restoration

Yes, cut the underside lip off that you can't see. Its easy and it works. If you trim most of it off you won't have any more scrubbing issues.

"pumped" means you beat the guards out so that they will fit more tyre under them. So you "pump" them outward.

Ahhhhhhh cheers mate. I though pumped ment otherwise haha.

Well either way i will have to re-spray the rear guards as they are full of bog. So i just need to decide if i want poke, or a nice flush, fit.
Jarred i'd love to take the subs out but then the loud exhaust does my head it, ahahah i just cant stand it. UNLESS i put on stockies problem solved.

Poke/flush.. hmmm decisions decisions. My life choices are so hard lol

LIKE OMG! Im extremely happy that i finally managed to get a pair of coilovers. Great shipping, with exactly 7 day delivery fom Germany. They were Hottunings on ebay, but the box says TuningArt. Who cares

Anyway, they look pretty cool, but im staring at them trying to figure out how to adjust it, and how it works. Hehe if someone can shed some insite
Also.. what do i do to prepare them. I've read somewhere about chain lube being used to prolong the life of them? Any suggestions fellas?

Cheers
An extremely happy young man.
