Very nice mate. I would get an SS front bar and colour code the black side strips.

Hey

Thanks for the comments guys, have booked her in to get lowered tomorrow... Going for the Kings SuperLow all round and also change the struts and shocks, was quoted $950 all up inc fit and supply... Thought that was pretty good!? Also booked in for tinting on Sat at mates rates $220 for the whole car and just darker than legal...

These are the new rims, sorry about the pic will take a better one after lowering and some cut and polish tomorrow!!!

Catch ya
Daz

That height looks great! Any reason you don't like it that low?
