You notched it finally?

[SebastienPeek]

You notched it finally?

Self notching on stock wheels worked wonders to pull off epic fitment up the front with the RS' on.

When I put the stock wheels back on you can see that the front is still a tiny bit higher than the rear due to the fact that it needs more notch.

One of the guys was in Adelaide from Sydney and I took him up for a hills run. Nothing fast paced *cough cough* or anything, but wanted to give him the good Adelaide Hills tour.

We were coming around a corner and I hit a fucking eagle. Of all creatures.

Anyway, the front damage is actually a fair amount. Front bumper reinforcement bar, front bumper, LHS headlight, RHS globe, front grill, all need to be replaced. Oh, and the front bonnet has a ding in it enough to not want to pop open anymore.

I have already sourced the globes and replaced them, but everything else is so damn expensive. Having been made redundant from my job also makes fixing this all up a bit more difficult than a couple of weeks ago.

Such is life.

[SebastienPeek]

Started to order the parts to fix up the front.

Front grill ordered.
Have to pick up front bumper reinforcement bar hopefully.
Then comes the LHS headlight (was pushed back and up and is cracked) and LHS parker. It might just be the bulb of the parker that is gone, so will check that out before ordering a new LHS parker.

Then hopefully I can start the wrap, we will see what happens.

My exhaust finally arrived.
It arrived damaged and missing two hangers. The one hanger it did have was in the complete wrong spot.

Now I need to figure out what I'm going to do with it... I don't even know what car the muffler is for. The pipe and flange is correct, the tips are what I wanted, but the muffler itself is damaged and missing two hangers.

This thing is SO raw dude. Good build man! I'm jelly.

So, I went and had a photo shoot while I was in Sydney. The location was sweet.

I thought I posted them but I must have forgot too. My bad...

I worked out my specs for the RS' too. 16x10+25 all around.
The rears have an 8mm slip on spacer however to clear the rear struts. Credit card clearance back there.
