Changed my mind again! Anyone any good at vinyl wrapping? As I'm going to wrap the whole lip in carbon

VS style lip from EPRacing will be in stock in 8 weeks time... had this idea myself you see Bought an N1 replica from the states on fleabay (my car is low and WILL destroy any lip I fit) and it fits fine, will need some fiddling, but as it's so flexible it can just be heated to bend any which way suits. Will get some pics up once mine is on!

A ginger spotted in Gaol Street car park in Hereford, possibly with a Seibon TT lip.

People who take the left lane to take a right exit off of a roundabout.

Quick question to anyone who has come across this or may have a bit of knowledge they'd like to pass on. I'm unsure of what tyre size to get for 19" 9.5 & 10.5 et12 both. Initially I thought 245/35 and 275/35 would be fine, but recently have been swayed toward 255/35 and 285/35 as a better option, any thoughts on size and make, I'm looking at lower down the scale, Falkens, Vreds, Toyo's (might be too much)? I should mention it's just a daily driver. Secondly, I'm lowered 25mm, will I definitely have to roll the rear arches or might I get away with it? Cheers!

Interested to know what you get then I can determine whether 275 or 285 i go and if I'll need to roll

Are you lowered? Any rubbing issues?

Sasha sorry to thread hijack, but you found 245/35 and 275/35 too stretched for your wheels? I ask as I'm wondering which tyres to get and have been considering 255 and 285. However, which a 25mm drop.

Dude, holy thread revival, but looks top!!!

back Amy! Well done on buying a far better example than the last one!

Ruled out water cannons, but approved rubber bullets!

If i'm correct Yokomo's car would be within your budget.

Quite glad I asked the question though, It's good to see peoples own personal preferences with such things, not to mention accepting that duralumin is a worthy and lightweight material to be used as a wheel nut over steel.

Well that's definitely an interesting read regarding the wheel nuts, seem to be fine for road usage then. Thanks for the Wiki! Ian- I went on what I've read, If yours seem fine and that's at hard driving then I guess tests speak for themselves! Buster- Thanks for the pic, I'm fairly settled on colour coded now!

I know, cheers dude! All help is greatly welcomed here. Wheels are hellish expense!.. I'm saving for wheel payment once they get here, tax in Aug, Insurance in Nov and then onto holidays next year, don't think I'll be doing much driving at this rate! Wheels looks awesome, they're Weds right? I thought aluminium raised questions of the durability and overall effect of forces on the nut? Although much lighter, they're soft? Steel is the best isn't it?

Any chance to pic whore!! It's just the lip I'm adding Ian I'd love a whole new front, but I didn't win this Saturday... Are your wheel nuts D1 perchance?

If there are other carbon parts on the vehicle, perhaps a chargespeed skirt setup then maybe cf would look good, but as the car is literally blue and silver I think it would be best to stick to colour coded. Irfan and Chris- Think I'll photoshop it to see what it comes out like. I've rear nismo spats colour coded so I think it will suit well! Blacky- I think you took the best route dude, saw your car at Japfest Castle Coombe, really smart in the flesh! Colin- Thanks for the pic of Yokomo's car, initially I was after the VS lip, but thoughts have recently changed (seems to be the case with car styling ) . Thinking of an 06 bonnet and front bumper r/s and blended without lines and into the lip at some point too.
