Yeah polo is all gone now, went this morning at half 6. Been a long day but I did come home with the civic after getting stung £100 for the emmision charge on me dads van. But worth it to get the car back home.

Il let the pictures do the talking. Will clean her tomorrow and detail it as much as I can in a day.

It's high for a reason of handling though. Low cars = bad handling if done wrong which most are. I'm just going to upgrade the springs possibly to lower 30mm ones but no lower. She will look even better with fresh paint.

Yeah I was sad alittle bit but due to me having another car to pick up i was ok.

The colour is one of the best in my opinion for the type r, just about to clay bar her now and deal with some scratches before I mop her next week....

Wow! Nice one Craig 8) Great choice mate and good colour selection too, Cosmics look class!

Deffo jealous of the Premier Recaro's they look well smart, i'm after a set myself or possibly JDM Recaro's if the price was right.

As for the springs mate go for a set of Eibachs because they improve the comfort too, the OEM springs are really crashy and feel harsh when driving about town.
Anybody with an EP3 will tell you the Fast Road Set-Up is essential so look to get that done if your thinking of doing the springs

Have you been enjoying the power then fella?
