    Really though, do it.

    As for wheels. I like sleepers, that's just me. The colour coding could be a bit too much red, I agree, although, with 17's it probably would look good with colour coded bumpers. I wouldn't be in any hurry to do it..
    Haha, it's a date! Try to keep up if you can..

    I like the wheels even if they are only 15s. Rides good and looks good enough. I'll only update the wheels if something comes along for the right price that i really like.

    Very nice work Preen.

    Good write up too! Another KW happy customer!

    To color code, or not to. The choice is your's.

    Wheel's, well that's personal preference & also what the car's purpose is intended for taken into consideration.

    Thanks Tim.

    More people should listen to you. IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT PAINT AND BIG WHEELS GUYS!

    I may colour code at some stage, when/if i do i'll get the bonnet resprayed etc and get paint protection put on it. It's getting stone chipped like a bitch!

    Wheels, well they can wait for the moment. Wouldn't go any bigger than 17s or you lose all practicality.

    Haha, yeah it's a given.

    The worst thing about driving a car that you like looking at is that you can't see it when you're driving it..

    I've been getting some serious looks from people as i go past. Had 2 R31 skyline enthusiasts have a big stare last night.

    Hi guys, this is my first ever post; please be gentle

    That fantastic looking(!) orange caddy at the beginning of this thread belongs to me. i thought i was the only mad man to want to fit coilovers in a caddy.

    Preen59 i think your caddy looks great, seem to sit even lower than mine and sounds like it might ride a little better. i agree with you on the handling, the thing is sensational! would be interesting to compare the two

    Cheers

    Vince

    Hey Vince, welcome to the forum mate!

    I saw your Caddy at the Nats and i said, "See, that's how i want mine to look!" Yours is very nice.

    Mine's pretty damn low, but with the smaller wheels it suits it. Yours looks great at it's height with the wheels on it.

    It would be interesting to compare. Although i think mine probably rides better due to the rear spring not being reset, i'm pretty sure that my setup would have been more expensive, though.

    Thanks for the kind comment.
