    Coilovers on, Spare Wheels and a few bits

    Just a few updates.

    Coilovers are finally on...best £400 (ish) lol quid I ever spent. The suspension doesn't knock anymore, it feels ok to have the car so low and I don't have to go round corners slower than a dead granny anymore. It's like a go-kart :D

    It's 'slightly' lower now



    Only shot I could get of them






    Also got this... but struggling with the ignition coil being in the way??



    Anywats...The end's now look like this (Nice grey with a slight flip in it)



    And finally...spare/ track wheels/ quarter mile wheels- thought I'd do them slightly different to normal :blink:









    Thanks,
    Mish

    You're a legend matey, thank you for the tip- I'll have a go tomorrow. :D

    As for white wheels, think it's a fetish or something

    Na its just the future - thats all!

    Looking great mish...any more pics of the lowness? how many turns off the bottom of the strut are you?

    I really like my Ultimate Coilovers, but are race track stiff. i hate the fact they dont have damping adjustment, but for the price i suppose you cant complain! Not much fun on B roads with nasty bumps though! Had some horrible bump-oversteer last nite at 80mph! My mate who was following me said i was litteraly 1/2foot from hitting the oncoming car with the arse of my clio! My great driving saved the day of course! :P

    Im getting some avo's or leda's in august tho!

    Also need to slow down on b roads sometimes!
