Hey guys
havent posted some recent pics of my car so heres one i did last weekend got heaps of photos but im in a rush so these will have to do ..... for now ....
i got some overlays for my headlights - gunsmoke (just indicator part only) and fogs - arctic blue
i ended up putting my H&R springs on because they werent selling and i had them already so i got them installed and extremely happy with them. just under a finger gap between the fenders and the wheel. I thought they would scrub but the wheels have +35 offset but we'll see after the wheel alignment.

Absolute beauty mate, I'll probably getting a kit within the next week (see how my schedule goes). My birthday is coming up this next Sunday so hopefully I'll have everything done by then! haha

they give you the full headlight over lays but they are seperated in two parts ( the indicators and the rest of the headlight) and in this case i just used the indicators.
i got the combo pack which was the headlight overlays + fog overlays for approx $70 shipped.
very happy with them
and +1 on the brissy cu2 meet. lets get a photoshoot arranged!
Yep...lets make a date and have a meet.
and + another 1 on the meet :D Probably sometime late September (I'm a bit flat out with uni at the moment =[)Quote:

guys i got my knfilter from ebay, just search kn filters and look at who doesnt overcharge for shipping. I msged one of the sellers and said he cud order it in for me. then i combine postaged it for $5 extra with my mates civic's filter and we got it for like just under $60 each.
i agree with the comment about the sound. im not sure if its a placebo effect but i definitely noticed a better sound and slightly better throttle response with the filter. best buy ever.
however recently my fuel economy has gone from 10 to 11.5, cud be cuase im doing more city driving and havent gottent my 20k km service tho. (already on 25k!). I dont think its related to the filter, more like my driving style, makes u wanna rev harder cuase the engine doesnt sound "like its suffocating"
btw how do you clean these things? box came with no instructions, friend said you gotta use this special oil/liquid?!? i thought that cant be right
and how often are you meant to clean them?
btw nester, sexy ride mate. My kit could arrive any slower...currently on a boat somewhere in the ocean T.T gunna take a few weeks to get here
With the fogs, theyre still stock right? with the arctic blue overlays you added, do you still get a yellowy tinge? i wanted to chagne mine cause i dont like the yellow bulbs conflicting with my white headlights.
which is easier, adding overlays (do you need to bake it?) or changing to different bulbs?
Anyone else got an K&N filter installed?? I want to know more, especially about the fuel economy. :D Under $60 each...that's a really good price mate, where did you get it sent from?Quote:

With the fog lights, I'd suggest you buy a pair of white light/6000k H11 bulbs on ebay to replace your current stock ones. Or if you want to go all out, go for a HID kit and install that in place of your fogs :P That's what my mate did on his Jazz and it looks absolutely amazing...:P
