GeX Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 (edited) New cat come today:Will be fitting it tomorrow as well as taking the adjusters out of rear and winding down the fronts to be level. Will take some pics. I have silver caliper paint coming which will be getting applied hopefully in a few weeks.Also have some wheel locking bolts to fit.

Next up is lamin-x subtle tint for headlights, indicators and sidelights.Then it's straight through pipe from cat to custom hidden backbox.

GeX Posted March 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Exhaust backbox decided it's going to almost snap itself off tonight, it sounds like a tank and is hanging stupidly close to the floor. Next available date at AAS exhausts is the 29th of this month and I don't get paid until the 26th so it looks like I'm taking some holidays off work to get it sorted out tomorrow and have to go with Powerflow.

arosabinns Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 only just realised these are the 6j ones thats why sits different.still looking very nice think should get some more lows though could spend wages on getting door handles colour coded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeX Posted March 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) German plates?I'll be getting my private reg soon with euro badge + metal pressed plates.only just realised these are the 6j ones thats why sits different.still looking very nice think should get some more lows though could spend wages on getting door handles colour codedYeah they're all 6J matey, I must have forgot to tell you lol.. I wanted flush not poke. I can't go any lower on the rear as I've took the adjusters out already and I don't want to get the springs rewound.Where I live I can't really go any lower as almost every road has really high speedbumps. I think I'll look into getting the door handles colour coded as that's on my todo list anyway, depends on the price really though.Thanks.

GeX Posted March 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) get them smoothed out and fit solenoids. p.i.m.pBoth my doors are dinged badly by the previous owner. Not sure to buy new doors or get them repaired at the bodyshop.I've no idea how to go about getting solenoids even working and I don't have central locking.
