No, because First line are still OE quality.
contradiction - you said they wear out a lot quicker
OE is far superior quality - Thats a fact that can't be argued!
I did and i've found that, but First line are built to OE spec.Quote:

You can see from Jeffs last pic that I can't really go much lower, not unless I make the car unusable or run the exhaust inside the car lol as it catches on everything, I can't go over certain speed bumps near where I live as it is...
The ride height will probably become a lot more sensible in the near future, but not too high though.
Looking good as always
You make me sickQuote:

Nice
When's it all begin then?
You managed to sort part numbers for the bump strips?
I can't help, as EPC won't work with windows 8
Looking good Scott, let me know if you find a intercooler to fit behind the bumper and I will keep you posted if I find one
No news on the bump strips, Richard got me some part numbers, I'm waiting to here back from Niek if there's any in stock.Quote:

Chris, I'm not sure yet, I've done some measuring and it looks like I may be able to use the frontera one, though I'll have to get some mounts welded to it.Quote:

It looks really nice on those wheels mate
Looks better than I thought it would Scott, no issues with the wheels rubbing on the inner arches on the rear then?
:cool:
New wheels do look very nice... See all that worry and nothing.
