p.s. wheels actually going on tonite.
i gotta roll my guards a little more. :thumbsup:
edit: wheels are on :) ill photo u tomorrow!
can safely say that the front, 19x8.5 +25 with a 215/35r19 will fit no problems :)
however, 19x9.5 +30 with a 225/35 will require u to do some work to the fenders and bumper :) imho 9.5 is a bit wide for our fd's in 19" maybe 17 or 18 tho :thumbsup:
Sweet! what paint did you use? VHT?
^ i used "3M" Caliper Paint from Super Cheap Auto... they didn't stock anything else really... was looking for Septone Caliper Paint but it's all the same shiz.
what camera you got?
i awnna paint my brakes black, any recommended paint brands? / which ones to steer clear of?
Took a quick look here to compare to yours. Results look similar, but instead, this one has used a 'brake caliper paint kit'
I'd also recommend sanding them down like a b*tch so they're smooth and shiny too, that'll look nice. Won't help as well with heat dispersion, but that's probably minimal anyway

Hey Mate, I have the 3M paint as well. Planning to do mine on a warm day. How many coats did you do? And how did you clean the calipers?Quote:

We did 3 cars (12 calipers) with one (1) can. 2 cars with 3 coats and 1 car with 2 coats =D
blah blah blah... will do a DIY write up tonite or tomz hehe =)
oh stig how i envy your air sus.

F**k yeah!
Hey All,
i'm really tempted to get the "HONDA CIVIC FD1 LED ANGEL EYES PROJECTOR HEADLIGHT" (Audi style),
found one place on ebay thats apparently located in Clayton, Melbourne selling them for $319 (each/pair - not sure yet lol)
Does anyone know of any other place in Melb that sells these? and are they hard to put on yourself? or best to pay someone to install?
PIC - http://www.nakawanet.com/angeleye/HU480E-02-1-J-012.jpg
Also are there any dramas getting these in terms of legal/non-legal? it states they use 4 halogen bulbs (I'm assuming they are the standard light bulbs) Do these headlights come in a version that supports HID?
Sorry all new to me :) - noob factor x 10000000
they come with halogen but u can replace em using hids.
my brother uses it in his car
im not a fan but hey its individuals
There seems to be a few floating around, so far i can see the following:
Audi style - http://www.nakawanet.com/angeleye/HU480E-02-1-J-012.jpg
Angel eye - http://www.srsauto.com/main/images/u...t%20FD2(1).jpg
Combo - Audi + Angel Style - http://www.mycarforum.com/ppclass/sh...=DSCF20741.JPG
Any others anyone know of?
