Well I'm thinking about having a get together this coming weekend? I have a load to get done on this for Brighton etc, so could all bring the cars, have a laugh, then maybe pub/pizza hut? I'll sort something out on Facebook

The Front end looks 10 times better now, side numberplate helps a lot imo.
Is it just the angle of the photo or do you need to adjust the front drivers side camber. (photo 5)

Oh yeah, it's completely transformed! I love it to bits.
Nah there's a horrendous amount of camber on that wheel haha... It's been like is since I got it, been tempted to try and DIY it to stop it scrubbing the inside out so much but got told off as I'll "make everything else worse" on Nutz. I'm still tempted... I need to get the full alignment done but it's at least £100 and in Dorking.

Other way round mate, its sand so you get more grip in the rain. Its just a case of how wet your willing to get. Truth be told, I'm more of a fair weather rider!

Rectangular headlights are bloody expensive unless you make them yourself. The kits are stupid money!
Do look good though...
Thought about de-tango-ing the front end? Clear repeaters and reflectors?

Matt, just no. I may get a joke tongue for shows just for you
Low-profiles do look good, but yeah they're too expensive for me at the moment. Maybe if a bargain pops up, but it's unlikely with these!
Haha, yeah, I was on eBay last night hunting! I'm thinking either clear or smoked ones... But founds don't allow currently, just had a large shinies purchase

Not a fan of the mirrors at all!
Would a decat involve flooring it up the road?

Mirrors that you can't see from really aren't good. So is that you don't like them because you can't see or do you not like the appearance?

Not ideal really! As that's the point... Erm I think I liked how it looked, but was in two minds. When I tried to see out of it, it made my mind up!
