    gene's ride

    It was time for a face lift after riding stock for so long.

    Got new wheels, bbs ch black with goodyear F1 asym 2 and KW V1s from Chris @ TPR eng (Thanks Chris!).

    The wheels and tyres were shipped from the UK. Never choose airport to airport option for shipping. Thinking you'll save a couple of hundred dollars, you will be slapped with all sorts of fees and charges. After this experience, its much more worth it paying more for a door to door shipping method (like UPS and FedEx). They do all the dirty work for you.

    Seriously WTF!


    Before:


    During installation


    In go the new coilovers...


    Rex says hi!


    After 6 hours, the final product







    Havent really got a chance to feel the new coilovers, but driving from the workshop to home, feels f*%^^$# awesome.

    its 18x8. Yeah the front needs to go down a little more but I didn't want it too low to avoid scraping bumps. Overall drop 1 inch all round.
