Another subtle touch





Much better than a random silver lock that I don't even use as you can pop it with the key!

P.S. Forgive the dirtiness!

Your brakes are on the way mate!

I have been thinking about getting my boot lock removed and smoothed over.

Cheers Doldy! I have thought about it to, this is the cheaper option for now

I agree Ben! I have the key, or the button on the dash, I've not once used the lock

Rolling shot

Bought some ST brakes from Doldy (cheers mate!)



Quick lick of hammerite:



Trial fit over standard discs:



Gonna put another layer of hammerite on there and get some braided lines before fitting them.

Awesome, Braided lines FTW mate. Your going the same route i did with the brakes but have now gone to 300mm Pumaspeed set-up....

The ST brakes are more sensible though and fit behind the ZS wheels awesomely.!

Have to agree that rolling shot is one of the best i have seen. Nearly as good as jimmy 2.1's when it was green!

TBH i dont see how you get away with having it that low!

I fitted my kw's today, granted i have 17"s but i have had to hack my arch lining away and its still scrubbing on some of the inside metalwork....

Cheers guys

I don't get rubbing at all, I rubbed for the first time the other day with a rather large person in the back and hit a bump at 90 Other than that I just have to turn slowly on full lock which isn't a problem.

I wanna get more rolling shots, and in daylight, as it was getting very dark by that point.

Awesome for the money. Only adjustable height but I didn't want to pay an extra £250 for damping which I had on my Corsa but never used! They have taken everything I've thrown at them which at some points is quite alot. The tyres give way before the coilovers, which is quite annoying but I'd prefer it that way round.

They still have an element of comfort about them, a couple of my non car mates didn't even realise it was lowered until I scraped some bumps

I would recommend them
