December 23, 200916 yr comment_400380 Thanks Jason, I'll chase up the 202 blue springs- Has anyone painted the window frames black? Some cars come out stock with them in black, and my ones are looking faded since I painted the main part of the doors only. Report

December 29, 200916 yr Author comment_401447 i just picked up a set of extractors exact same as ures above mate douno how they go yet though Oh nice let me know how they go champ, on the other note i did some more work to it today just sanding it back bog n primer on the pannels, chucked in the lowerd springs in the rear I'm thinking they are waayyy to low my 14's probably wont even fit! haha. all good tho I'm just going to cut my other ones :y: Pic's!; LAYIN LOW :y: What do you guys think, in my opinion its gangsta low but mite be too low haha :dance: Report
December 29, 200916 yr comment_401450 haha! Yeah it is gangsta, but its no good if you want to drive it around! Don't forget to fit the Corona LCAs and then get a wheel alignment after you've decided on a ride height, that is what really makes it handle! Report

Don't forget to fit the Corona LCAs and then get a wheel alignment after you've decided on a ride height, that is what really makes it handle! Haha yeah I'm just not sure yet i like how low it sits but maybe 5cm higher should sit nicely, but I'm thinking when i lower the front it will even out and I'm predicting about a 5cm increase in height in the rear once the front is lowerd. I'm pretty sure my 14's should clear it anyway. i've still got the stock old springs here if i have to put them back in or cut them to make it sit higher! :dance: Cheers. (big thanks to justin for helping me set this boss kit up right god they can be bugger of a thin sometimes!) Report
