What my car looked like when i bought it

Image

When i did something to it...

Image

Image

Planning sounds: (idea: to be able to take if off easily)

Image

Applying the plans:
Image - used this metal wire to get it though the rubber or that hole

Image

Image

Image

Image

Outcome

Image

Image

Sort of didn't like it.. needs more lights but im afraid it will be like this for now untill i find time to create my new plan.. hopefully next week.. hopefully..

Sounds are being rearranged atm with perspex - changing to green neon and adding neon inside the car.. See pic of plan below


New Plan: drew this today to give you guyz an example

Bought the side skirts/ end cap $150 20/01/2011
lip arrived $200 21/01/2011..just in time before the meet:P

i offered the dude who owned the mark 2 with factory side skirts 400 then 500 then then i said i'd offer him a good price..(1000 just to see if he would say yes) but no... i offered him half the price of his car.. watta... but here it is, bought these off a jzx nz member james wilson, cool guy and the front lip from empire imports great britain.

on our shitty roads 45 profile are all good, thats what I have on my 91 and I have hit a "few" holes in the road and not managed to buckle my rims yet. 40 profile would be sweet but not keen to replace a set of gram lights :o What springs do you have in yours? I have tanabe and it didn't lower the back of mine bugger all yet it lowered the front miles!!. Looks very hod rod now. haha Gonna get the springs compressed and reset now
