Bought some new wheels :D Though i'm unsure if I am going to run them or sell them, rego is due :(
They are 2010 ROH Modena, 19x8.5 genuine 3 piece, with powdercoated gunmetal grey centres. I called ROH with the model number to confirm they are the 2010 model, turns out they were $800/bare rim when new!!
Anywho, I trial fitted them just for some fun.

And i've been working on some interior lighting. I'm not a fan of most 'in your face' neons or whatever, but these LED's provide a fairly subtle glow, and so far its coming along well. Some wiring and the LED's:

Also bought some front springs finally, some 'Low' Kings. I wanted to go lower but these were only $50 so it'll do me for the meantime.

So help me decide, which wheels!

Or my VZ Monaro?

Either way, both wheels will be getting a nice cleanup, and new tyres where required etc (Need 4 tyres for Modenas though :/)

A very audio related update.. Hence why I don't update this thread very often :p all my work is really audio related.. None the less, here's what i've been working on lately

Update time, though only small.

My monoblock amp was not mounted securely enough, there was a little bit of movement. To fix it properly, I mounted a 12mm piece of plywood to the side of the boot, and then the amp to the board, tidied wiring up etc. Its very secure now, absolutely no movement at all.

Here is the series of pictures, in a rough order so you can see how I did things.

How does it look? The cover is not perfect, but I think it looks better than no cover at all. There are two screws holding it in place, with some black covers over the screws.

Also, I ordered 30metres of heatshrink :p Then cut it up into ready to use pieces, and put them in a little box. This is going to be very handy
