I wish mate I wanted one of the sets kiz has for sale but simply can't this month with a massive hmrc bill!

Next month I could but they won't be there so ill settle for some phil j ones temporarily I guess.

Reason I wanted mk1 was for camber adjustment though

  • Picking up the new coupe Saturday. Once I start work on it ill make a new thread pretty excited

camber adjustment <3 Fair enough, cheapy shit wheel bearings, good quality TRE and gaiters. probably 3 maybe 4 hours work :-)

Cheers man appriciate that. I need some of those camber top mounts but can't find them anywhere!

This is the poke nothing crazy but its enough to spoil my plans!

Could get away with that dude, 165/55/13's and et 20 something is what my fronts are (not very specific i know) slight arch pull and it never caught and you know the height of mine :-)

Do you want this stupid low? i do like it asis i have to say.

never understand why would smash fuck out the arches to get wheels to fit/ridiculous lows just makes it awful and cringy to drive and not to mention your looks like a banger once you smashed fuck out of it

Why not? Who cares its not my car... I think it's awesome and that says a lot as I don't really like breadies

Each to their own if I doesn't have a rusty bonnet and wonky plate I'm easy...

Parts I'm picking up at the end of the month

Standard grill - mines been sprayed satin black

G40 interior and black door cards. I have tombstones too so well see how long that lasts but I can't stand the boulevard interior, I will also have a spare set of black door cards

Tornado red bonnet

Trying not to spend too much this month which is proving difficult as I'm very impatient and want everything now haha.

Kind of pointless post but I'm bored..

Here's my £5 spare wheel..

Bought it like this

01B1F303-477F-4FD8-96EC-DE4142FBC6AA-185

After 15 minutes sand blasting my wrist was killing so ill carry it on tomorrow

745BE828-3AEB-4DB3-A649-83E0C0571B94-185

It's basically my trial wheel which will determine how the wheels on my car will be refurbed, polished dish and spoke faces just deciding on colour next

My old cats, you bought them off max i assume??

Look so fucking perfect on a MK3. Why did i ever sell them :(

I did indeed mate, they are quality just need the car lower to pull them off..

The spare was from the set of 5 I brought of you Agess ago! I only ever refurbed 4.

haha, how funny is that, all my old cats :lol:

Those i sold you were fucking mint, don't think I've seen a set in such good condition before tbh.

Wish they did 14" cats :(

haha, how funny is that, all my old cats :lol:

Haha crazy cat man,

Catman... They look quality

I'm just a ninja ghost :ninja:

Do look good, i remember seeing pics of them on i think, don't think it clicked who's they were lol.

Isn't the original design to have a polished lip & face?

What's the plan for yours matt?

Couler coded would look good

  • Author

I'm unsure to be honest, polished lip and face but I don't really want them red or black and nothing lary ha I haven't got the foggiest

I think they look bloody good as they are!

What looks really good i thought, all black then just polish the face. Gives a weird illusion as the tyres blend with the rest of the wheel, just leaving the pattern visible 8-)

  • Author

That does sound pretty cool actually! Ill have a think and see what I come up. My attention span is pretty non existent so I bet they will stay the same haha

atleast that way, you can if you want later on, polish the lips aswell...

Win win situation ;)
