Very ncie looking car mate.

Are the pics shown before or after it was lowered? Because I can't really notice that it's been lowered.

Other than that it's very tidy looking and awesome that it's a manual. The rims are great too.

yeh i was going to lower it more when i got the shocks but i cant afford the amount of tyres that id go through, even wid a camber kit.

also had a look at a hard top cover and atm it's way out of my budget, but they look sweet but.

cheers

Nice ride mate, good luck in the future with her

Don't worry about the k's to much, aslong as you don't thrash her or have a heavy foot
