It IS a lovely looking 5th, difficult to define what exactly it is that sets it apart for me, from a lot of 5ths which I can take or leave TBH. I think it's a combination of things, either way, it just looks 'right'. And now with proper poke too! Lovely :mrgreen:

So damage I had car park scrape from some guy who past his test few months before:

Image

Gordon sorted me out new bumper, old one was out of shape anyway.

Turned out this bumper while not perfect I just put on the car, you can tell colour difference but looks better than it was:

Image

and fitted type S rims I acquired from mudgey, thanks bud, and new wheel nuts I had:

Image

Image

Wrapped in some of these:

Image

ride is nicer, and handling improved, but that's probably the new tyres

went to some wholesale Chinese website for some mugen copy gear knobs, I didn't want to spend a lot:

Image

Image

I went with the black:

Image

don't shift miss! :lol:

so some small updates/repair, keeping my DC5's they could do with refurb and 45 profile tyres, dunno about you guys but roads around me are shocking, running 40 profile on those 17" was taking its toll on me :( :lol:

removed my motegi rear lip, with the help of some ferrsol from the old bumper. need to get it resprayed.
