don't worry guys rear windows are getting tinted then going to lower it and paint the bumpers and bonnet as they are stone chipped and I want an r front bumper when I can afford one or can you get a r style lip as seen something about that a while back.
It can be lowered to a nice height now as I have got the 18's on with 225/40's
Pedro I like your bro's old monkey.
thanks for the nice comments, the wheels were a complete fluke but think they suit it really well.

RGM do a couple of front lips for the normal bumper LINK (http://www.extremeautoaccessories.co.uk/products.php?section=4118). Johnny Tempest uses one on his race car

thanks guys. I nearly sold it the other week but then did the wheels and trims and fell in love with it all over again.
Window tint is on its way and then may fit the stereo gear in as done all 4 door speaker upgrades to Alpine's got dash and rear speakers to do.

Nivomat rear dampers will hopefully be coming of but need to order the lowering springs as would change them now but don't know if the rear springs are different between the standard and nivomat's.

Looks smart, the wheels almost like a take on the Volan. Are they the newer version that Volvo do for the V70's that have been machined slightly or are they an aftermarket alloy? Like the trims, nice subtle touch.

Wheels are a ford focus 7.5x18 that I found on net and had the centre bore machined as they were only 63.3 mm centre's but fit really nice and I like that they looked like similar to Volans as they were a bargain in the end.

yes, nivomats are alot softer than the normal spec suspension

Started tinting the rear windows today turned out to be a pain but will get them finished in next few days when my back recovers from being in the boot.
