Replaced my spare tyre with this (to balance out the weight of the sub box Rolling Eyes )
Is the sub really that heavy then?
I will think twice about getting one then :)

Cars looking good mate

Yeah the sub on it's own is a good 7-10kg I reckon + the box I think it's probably a good 15kg

you modified it a bit then?

looks cool.

if i had this car i would get the exact same wheels done black for winter 8)
Yup got the angle grinder out, to shorten the bolts a bit and then sprayed it black because it just looked stupid in silver 8)

Oh and I already have some winter wheels, look a couple of pages back, I'm just in the process of sorting tyres out asap as my polished ones are getting battered in this weather :(

Cheers James definately the best looking aerial, I never listen to the radio so the shorter the better :)

It's what I'm swaying towards... All reds, Also thinking of swapping sidelight + brakelights, so the led's are brake lights rather than sidelights.


Thanks for the comments everyone! :D

Update: Lowered the car a fair bit more and slapped my winter wheels on with brand new 195/45/14 Falkens, You can see what it looks like if you come down to the DubClique meet :wink: :P

Since I resized them with photobucket it reduced the quality quite a bit :(

Thanks for looking,

Very nice. Love the look with those alloys.

Where'd you get the hat for monkey? Innocent Smothies?

Oh, and have you changed the aerial back?

Well first week of having the aerial on, some diseased bellend decided it was too good for my car and it would look better on his f*****g french crap. Not happy :evil: Lucky I got sent two though!!

Yup, I was more pissed off that someone had the balls to touch my car!! :evil:
I have another so it's not so bad, I'll only be sticking it on for meets/shows or where I know it going to be safe!

Cheers for that mate!! I'm going to be honest though, I don't think the wire for the aerial is even plugged into my HU :oops: Thanks though!

If you have a look at the grill closely you will see that there are 2 sort of sections of plastic evenly spaced behind the honeycomb and I've fixed the bracket to that! :wink:

Thanks for the kind words everyone! really appreciated! :D

So you took the front bumper off, put some plastic behind, and sandwiched the grill between that plastic and the brackets with screws?

Nope, A lot simpler than that! You'll have to have a closer look at your grill mate! then you'll be able to see what I mean. There are three evenly spaced stripes of plastic behind the honeycomb....
