its wierd tho there was an additional lip at the bottom of the bumper, and was 3 pieces lol
NICE!!

Looks awesome man. Is this the first RR fitted FD in Aus?

shit dez.... dw i got rear ended too =.=.... sucks ass
Mad!!!!!!
dw, i got hit in the side after only doing 1600km on my car... LOL
i got sideswiped and then t-boned by a semi-trailer 2 years ago! FDs can handle some punishment lol.
how bad is it dez? got pix?
btw @ stanz86: do you have any pics of the rear? how is your exhaust system set up? will u be running a dual exhaust to accommodate for the RR rear bumper?
the kit was customed a little at the back to only fit 1 exhaust, might just leave it for now or cut another hole next time lol. Didnt want only 1 exhaust with smoke while the other looked like a display object lol
Only rear close up shot i took today : still have to fit the LED brake light tmr or day after.

is it a full bumper or just a rear lip?
its just a lip, quite a big one tho

http://www.tyrestretch.com/images/8....lken_ZE512.jpg
205/40/17 on ur 17x8s wont be too much of a stretch, especially with the falken 512 or 912 tyres.
sounds good :thumbsup: slam your car on it!.. should have gone lower.. like +30 :D but thats just me..Quote:

go on www.rimtuck.com
best site ever imo
that white FD ^ up there is PERFECTION. to me anyway. i just had a wank.
^ I reckon that fg's wheels look too small. Doesn't fill up the wheel well that nicely. I'm going for 18-19s
My new wheel, 19", 8.5 , 43+ :D no rub at all with 4 ppl inside :thumbsup:
sorry for crappy mobile phone picture, will upload moaar pictures later

got a flat out battery this morning...:thumbdwn:
didnt use the car for 4 days..the only thing that i forgot to turn-off is the ceiling light
do my batery needs to be replaced?..its only 10months old from purchase
the exact same thing happened to me twice in the last 3 months, my car's about the same age as yours and the battery seems to be fine now.Quote:

?
hey tim how much did u wanna let go of ur rims for?
both times that it happened to me was because i left the map light on. not too sure if it's covered under warranty, i've just recharged the battery and it's been running fine since..Quote:

Made my battery very weak in the morning, but started after a while
dont need to get a new one, just recharge it. or if you can get it to start just drive it around awhileQuote:

tim r u considering selling ur rims?
the ASM looks fantastic!
need mugen kit, but that exhaust looks good!
Asm?
Ej: $120 delivered
I don't want to get a mugen kit and look like everyone else. Like aero says I'm gonna lower it but not ridiculously and get rims. Also something else to finish the look but just wait and see :)
Xenon: Where can i get one?
Ryan: Not anymore coz i got a surprise with it soon
asm is ur colour
mugen kit will be awesome sauce mang, looks too naked without, but i suppose it's been done a lot. Go oem lips?
NO!
OEM lip is for me only!
LOL!
ive got front and rear modulo and mugen sides and wing
thinking of getting rid of the wing and get the hybrid duck and the roof spoiler
