Nice job! :D

Do you think the car will become too stiff though, once you install the coilovers (or suspensions/springs)?
Or do the two things have nothing in common? :confused:

I am booked for coilovers in March.
Today I was at Valley Park, in Croydon, where a lot of megastores are. Needless to say there were speedbumps every 4 friggin' yards in all the parking lots. It was a nightmare on my normal suspensions.
Now I'm scared of what it's gonna be like -after- I get the coilovers! :cry:

Car serviced

Had the car serviced at JKM Performance in Portsmouth today. :D What a lovely bunch they are there. Had a good chat about cars in general, rolling roads and remaps when I picked up the car. All good as far as the service is concerned and they even cleaned it for me! Next one will be a biggy though.. coming up for 4 years old, so cambelt and water pump!

I can definitely recommend JKM to anyone localish to Pompey!

On with the modding I suppose... :)

Had a job interview today but I won't find out until Monday probably... which is rubbish. Anyway, after it was over I went for a bit of a spin to unwind and visited some of my favourite stops! Enjoy... ;)

Thought about doing anything with the alloys?

They will need a refurb at some point as there are bits of lacquer peeling off. I was thinking of doing them black. My neighbour has refurbed and painted his own wheels and they look great so I might go down that route. I'm thinking black and grey scheme for my car from now one! Painted rear badge/handle too...
 
i finally fitted my h.i.d.s this evening there 8000k there nowhere near as blue as i expected them to be. they were really blue in my old car but my old car had the glass ball thing infront of the bulb.
the 8000k bulbs seem to perfectly match the led bulbs so im happy lol.
