Very nice car you have and one of the few lower millage ones. Good cheapish mod you can start with are some rear wheel spacers. Will look really nice with the ride height you have at the moment and improve handling alot!

FMIC is on the list for mods and wheel spacers. Ive been trying to look for some reasonably priced spacers but they are all £50+ what is the best FMIC I can get?
I was contemplating getting some BBS RS split rims for it but the dosh is far to much so may go for some D90s and get them dimond turned. Dont suppose anyone knows where I can get a set for cheap?

Your car looks nice, Im liking the white wheels against the blue, however I wouldnt fancy cleaning them.

its not to bad when you work at a car garage, just wack some acid on and then blast it off with the steam cleaner.

I just bought a set of d90's today for £250 heres one front (6j) and one rear (8J). They have a bit of damage but nothing a good refurb wouldnt fix.
Could I have suggestions on colours to spray them because im so undecided.

Ive decided on a colour for my D90's its a gun metal greay with a red tint with a silver lip, hopefully I will have them done by the weekend then I will have to buy some rubber and adapters.

Looks really good. What depth adaptors are you running as I've just bought D90s of the same widths and am trying to decide which depth would be best.
