ChiefChavley Posted May 30, 2013 Posted May 30, 2013 Hi All! I've been a long time lurker and just recently started making modifications to the car, so I thought I should finally post. Here's a pic of it when I first got it: Quote
ChiefChavley Posted May 30, 2013 Author Posted May 30, 2013 Added a carbon fibre bonnet and 20" alloys. The alloys didn't fit at first because they were rubbing against the brembos, so I had to get spacers. Eibach spacers - 25mm rear and 20mm front. Gives it a much more aggressive look. Quote
spursmaddave Posted May 30, 2013 Posted May 30, 2013 Wow HUGE wheels I like them, so glad you didn't go down the black alloy route Quote
Dannyg Posted May 30, 2013 Posted May 30, 2013 I like that a lot Sent from my LT30p using Tapatalk 2 Quote
ChiefChavley Posted May 30, 2013 Author Posted May 30, 2013 The old alloys were the Rays 18" ones. The arches just swallowed them up! And without spacers they were too much inside the arch. I knew I had to get 20's............always been a fan of big wheels. One benefit from the bigger wheels is that there's a little more ground clearance, so I'm not scraping the splitter over every speed hump I see (or maybe I've just become a more cautious driver!)

spursmaddave Posted May 30, 2013 Posted May 30, 2013 Lovely wheels, right up my street . Pete I was just thinking..... Pete would love those 1 Quote

bronzee Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 Welcome to the forum. You didn't waste any time modding. Quote
ChiefChavley Posted May 31, 2013 Author Posted May 31, 2013 Thanks guys. Not got any immediate plans for the car, was thinking about tinkering under the bonnet for big power gains but I've done that before and once you go down that route, you end up with a car that's not useable as a daily driver! I quite like the look of the subtle kit on the car, it's not too leery but still stands out. Quote
Aliensurfer Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 Not keen on the bonnet, but loving those wheels. Quote
WhackyWill Posted June 2, 2013 Posted June 2, 2013 Nice car. Is that it? 2 month holiday and you come back with. "Nice car" I'm not allowed to say much more..!!! Quote
