I then bought some front coilovers.. which we fitted.. I tried them on with the wheels before i masked and painted them.
They did sit a bit close... just to let you know the image below does have a 10mm spacer on aswell




I also bought a Kamei grill... which i have repainted dark metallic grey with Glitter

That's really smart apart from the rear plate and the tow strap.

Normal sized rear plate, depos and lose the strap and it would look even better, IMO of course. Looks nice as it sits though.

Personally I like the square plate, think a 'stubby' plate with shortened recess would look wish I'd have done it on mine
