Jowey Posted February 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 I go away for a few days and **** kicks off! HahaJowey, share these plans with me!!!!! Also, love the ghost lace, however i cant help but think you should have covered the roof in it and had the end on the top of the boot lid? Looks sick either way! Welcome back LGGI hear what you are saying there, but I want it as subtle as can be. I will however be going over the top part of the boot lid in lacquer also just to blend it all in. I love wrap around glass Loving the roof Jowey. Really original Thank you amber Cheeky git!I missed that.who me ? I'm innocent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jowey Posted February 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 whoring the link around because it is an incredibly useful utility ! The best bit is when I see threads entitled 'will these fit' I don't have to write anything useful.. I can just post cats but still transfer the required information.. WIN, WIN offsets of the new wheels are ET48 and ET15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jowey Posted February 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 (edited) I think the centre cap dish is seriously sick.Got the lovely new hoops this morning. The rears have been powder-coated Which is an awesome bonus.Also have Alpine centre caps rather than Renault ones which I'd imagine are slightly harder to find.Also came fitted with very good Falken Ziex ZE 512 225/50/15'sWhich is slightly narrow for a 8.5J wheel and does mean they have a very mild stretchhowever they are useless to me so will be sold on. The fronts have 195/50/15 Goodyear eagle ventura's fitted these are the same tires a friend of mine has on his 400bhp Subaru and they grip and grip wet or dry.Current plan is to fit the 195/50's onto the 8.5's and run a ball load of camber on the back and grit my teeth and hope there is enough clearance.If not they'll be up for sale too.and I'll go for some 195/40's .. or possibly 185's but will be running dog leg out backand i dont fancy running on the square stetched edge of a nankang The fronts will need spacing out because they are ET48 so 15mm spacing will be needed. want to keep it mega tuck.. maybe space them outto sit flush at a later date. We all know spacers are cheating in the fitment game Bad news is I am totally broke now So can't get spigots, spacers or the tires removed/refitted until the 25th had a few suspension bits turn up today aswell . but no photo updates of that untilI know it works (see Sam thats how you do an update ! ) Edited February 19, 2010 by Jowey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jowey Posted February 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 One thing I didnt consider with the clear coated lace paintis lacquer peel.It was frosty last night and it has already started to peel in place.gaayGot the new suspension on.. hello reverse rake.needs some tweaking. pix tomorrow hopefully.nice! what wheels are they??? look a bit like 'vette ones? Are all 4 8.5j??.. or just the rears?I thought they were 'vette sawblades when I first saw them too.fronts 6J rear are 8.5JAwesome wheels! What a bargain too Cant wait to see these fitted,Rich.Thanks Rich !Next time I'm online say hi to me on MSN.. I deleted all my contact list accidentlyI miss our chats Need to get them fitted mate, look awesome, bonus on the coated rears!Got some 195/45 should you need them.HOW much camber will the rears need though Can't wait to get them fitted.. need to beg/borrow/steel some spacers and I can roll them.Might take you up on those 195/45's shall see how how the 195/50's sit.Looking good dude as always dude Thanks Kam dude. When do I get my plaque of hoopty approval hmm ?awesome update Jowey! and that little teaser picture looks great! im glad Oscar and i have persuaded to go for the camber! we will have to meet up for a coffee again soon, like the old ladies we are! The pictures of Pankton in the 'shiney' thread made me want camber.Still not holy convinced camber works on hatchbacks .. let alone onewith NO rear overhang what so ever. . then again from the rear Yes coffee soon is a must. I could do with my roof bars to ferry wheels and tires around atm was a nightmare trying to fit 2 sets of wheels in the backwithout scratching anything.
