Got my windows tinted to darkest legal with Tint A Car, had a $100 off special, not as dark as I was hoping, will have to get a better picture soon of side windows properly, but still looks better than standard :)

Think those seats are clean? I did, but I'm a bit perfectionist and clean seats periodically, got a steam cleaning unit this time

Nothing performance based, saving up for my turbo back exhaust. Also please excuse 4WD mode, raised the coils so I can put chains on through snow season haha

In the process of getting a RWC to clear a defect atm. Vic roads approved of the coilovers and camber tops but I still need to change one strut top bearing and according to the roadworthy guy, my "front right suspension is bent", he doesn't know which part of the suspension........but it's bent he says.
Here's what it looks like at the moment. Thanks to Matt for lending me the wheels and Dyl and Stu for helping out with stuff aswell :)

^^ wow it doesn't look like your car at all. I'm glad I kept my stockies in case I run into the same situation.

Got a quote for around $600 to have them installed, screw that. It was heaps easier than I had expected.
It is a fair bit lower than the Eibach springs I had.
190,000 km on stock shocks and 160,000 with the Eibachs springs.
The stock shocks were stuffed, when I push them down by hand they stay down.
The ride has been transformed, speed bumps are now a non event.
Have to get an alignment this week then will have a proper throw into some corners.
