little close up of the front all smoothed
wacked on some neo chrome nuts
decided the yellow calipers just cant stay any longer so got the black out
then was exhaust issues due to new lows. center box had to go, sadly no pics of it being welded but just the one of it nose up and exhaust off.
WHEEL TIME :D :D
i remember the day these turned up and i test fitted them! WOW #poke
another little job i got done after about 4 or 5 times getting the wrong size bushes was to finally get the rear arb on!
next up, was rear camber. these came from my best mate as a freebie for helping him out. 1st thing was the get them apart and clean them up
old vs new
sadly no after pics =( but theres plenty to come
decided headlights needed the de-chrome treatment very simple job to do and great results!
tyres turned up and i was straight off to get them fitted there a 165/50 on a 8.25
and the wheels were on xD
with the wheels on and it sitting lower it was time to say goodbye to some exhaust hangers and the 2 hook things on the front
bye!!!

oh yes, its me. finally making a build thread from my deck! this is going to take a while seeing as iv owned the car now for 8 months! but here goes, few pics of when i picked it up and though the stages of work iv had done, and to the most recent jobs iv got done and or waiting to fit.
Morning after i picked it up big silly 17s stupid stickers. good base but not my cuppa.
thing drove like a sack of what not so got the tracking etc looked at. it was all out. no surprise.
i put it back on the standard wheels. then noticed it needed to be a bit lower so i wound down the crap ebay coilovers.
few lil things i did next. took the rear wiper off and bunged the hole, took the rear end apart and gave it a good jet wash i remember it looked like it had lived off road!
NEXT UP was its big trip to the bodyshop. originally had gone in for a small list of bits but my mate who owned the place sat with me having a chat and we decided on a full respray and loads of other bits. absolute ledge! lots of pics of the time there.
dents sorted
rear smoothed
more dents
had half the car painted then noticed the paint was to far gone to match so re did the whole car
here was the difference
painted
front all back on with gloss black grill and satin bump strips
weather strips were all messed up.
and the afternoon i took it home

Hi all. Just wondering, I picked up a aerodeck at the weekend, and 1st things 1st it needs coilovers! By looking at it am I rite in saying anything made for the ek will fit? All looks the same only reason I ask is I had a ek for 5 years on d2s and could not fault them so ideally id like the same set up on the deck.
Cheers. Matty.
