    That poke in the rear shot is verging on outrageous! (In a good way ...)

    haha thanks, theres not much poke. the wheels still tuck when i load the car up

    New OEM end links in, sway bar forced onto the lose/street setting
    Found out the rattle in my exhaust, inside of the cat is stuffed, so thinking i might just get a straight through section as it'll be cheaper then a new one im guessing I never wanted to bother with trying to make this car fast, but might look into seeing if a straight section and more free flowing air in take with be worth while

    Have only just seen this thread now. Looks dope on the RS brother! Are you still going to refurb them? The lips would come up super bling if you just stripped the clear off them and polished them up, wouldn't need to disassemble! Keep up the choice work.

    Your Bora looks awesome Dylan!

    I ditched my stock headlights and replaced them with some spanking (non genuine) ones. Makes an amazing difference, my originals were *really* bad though.

    Totally love the wheels. Looks great!

    What coilovers did you get and approx how much were they? I'm looking around for some now.

    Cheers!

    TA Technix or something, they are the same as the hottuning ones sold on here I believe. Paid $700 posted I think.

    How is the ride/handling ? I was worried about getting cheaper ones in case they were ****.
    I had STUPID hard track coilovers (HKS) in my old GTR, handled beautifully, but Sydney roads almost killed me.

    The ones I got are just OEM style with the black (not silver) background. My Bora already had fogs and a switch (not sure if it was an option?) so just got ones with the fogs.
