    My OCD took over and this happened



    Wasn't happy with the centre cap colour not matching so went to get some paint but the wheels are all different colours are been powdered aswell so strip down, acid dip and spraying them myself this time as I should of done in the first place

    Thanks I was going to use 215/35's both front and back but I think that is too much for a daily driven car! And yeh I'm on the hunt for the necessary parts but might take a while to get a good deal on everything!

    Got money burning a hole in my pocket so I'm thinking either lci halo headlight conversion or a dash swap and get I-drive?? Or maybe some carbon goodies?

    So I've ordered my tyres! In the end I went for 205/40/18 on the 9 and 215/40/18 on the 10.

    I have also bought some lci paddles as I don't like the weird ability to shift up and down on either paddle on the pre-lci ones



    And I have been trying to strip the centre rings on the rf's so I can paint them the exact colour of the wheels since the powder was a little off. An hour on the grit blaster had a tiny piece back to alloy so going to invest in some gasket remover to get the job done!!
