    Looks so much better with the spacers, what were you using for the lighting?

    Spacers are on!

    Decided i better get some pictures myself that aren't from my phone. They really, really aren't the best, but once i get the body work and rear camber attended too, i'll try and get some non-ghosted ones with some actual effort put in rather than just a random seafront car park haha.






    This one i kept getting wrong, but got bored haha. Also, yes i know a tonne of people **** stickers, but they are all websites i love and like to support so they can keep doing what they doing. Stance:nation, Fatlace, Canibeat and Wheel-whores rule my lunch time.




    Panel gap failed, after putting on the lip i keep hitting the floor which has pushed the limits of the metal a little haha.


    Another fail, didn't want the light trail in the photo but had to light the rears then run round to fronts and didn't have enough time to light the fronts without the source of the light showing.


    Over exposure fail.

    I re-lipped the rear's, so i know it's not cheap. :P

    They only RM's so you just need to buy a new lip.

    It's not really the cost, it's the effort of doing it. When i did the rears, the gold plate literally fell of all all the bolts so had to get them all replated. Was just a major pain in the arse which puts me off rebuilding them, then had to reseal one too. Never again.

    Naaah, got other plans for the head lights and corners. Getting clear and flat side's are on the list, need to get bodywork sorted first though.

    Just ordered 25mm spacers. Not sure if that'll be enough but we shall see soon enough. Well, after my 10 days in Greece next week.

    So, JapFest has been and gone, and there are now a lot of scrape marks in, and around Chippenham.



    That was after raising it, and that's not the lowest point, the ARB just to the left is lower, that can is fighting with my subframe. That's the coilovers maxed out on rear, and the front's have come up 10mm from max.





    Like this shot, Integra on BBS, and Civic on BBS.



    Yes, spacers, i know, didn't get time and run out of money, will be happening next month.

    Finally, me avoiding cat's eyes - they make the most awful ding noise ever!

    It's my camera phone, proper dull's down the colour, but to be honest, they are a bit dull as well, but not quite as bad as the picture makes out.

    Although fronts are OEM BBS gold, rears are what i had replated.
