  • So had been toying with the idea of bolt on arches recently, as if by magic this 360 degree rendering shows up on the net to buy! However the makers forget to stop you saving images as at given point on the rotation. So i saw the perfect opportunity to get busy with the PS. Convinced now that bolt on arches would be cool as a mommyfuker...

    • Got hold of a pair of Eagle F1's making 4 tyres in total YO> 1 x part worn @6.5mm and 1 x new one (hurt payin for that!) Going to keep the wheels fresh with some poorboys sealent aswell.

      Was time to do the front brakes today as the pad had gone past the friction material and was now metal on metal! Pagid discs & pads fitted(£95), OE quality Anodized surface to the disc which is going to make some noise wearing off supposedly. Had a brake winder tool but ended up using a G-clamp and a alu. drift to push piston back in. Sliders where also unseized in the process.

      To the pic.



      Had to be done!

      • Fronts mounted & wheels balanced after jogging round 4 garage/tyre places in my lunch break to see if they would fit part worns first then to ask if they would touch some stretch, luckily the last place said "Yeah we will have a try" popped on 'em no probs. didn't even scratch the rims, bonus!





        Should have the Eagles mounted up by the weekend

            • That looks awesome, can't wait to see them all mounted. Also I feel like the rest of the car is very oem+ and the flares really don't flow with that them, just my 2 cents

                • Hey thanks Guys appreciate the kind words, been a trip going this far with them! Cant believe just how close it is sitting, reckon I might need a little fender pull on the front.

                  • Rears are on, arch was sitting on the tire so I did a little ghetto pull but managed to chip the paint, fuck it can be sorted out later! Three coats of poorboys wheel sealant done this morning

                        • Why no 195-40-16 tyres?

                          • Well i did not know exactly what tire I could get away with so I just went for 205! 40's are to hardcore for me, don't like too much stretch either.

                            • Doesn't even look like an mx3 anymore, and those wheels are absolutely perfect on there. Any plans to tint those indicators orange?

                              • Does it look like a poor man's Ferrari ?! hahaha.. Well in love with my new wheels now! Was that the orange side repeaters? Tint them Red maybe or move them.
