Parking is so much easier with wide wheels. I can see my wheel poking out in the mirror so it would take a complete tool to kerb it

Glad you saw the funny side, I'm old and boring so read that as a "hater", but I'm always pleased to see someone having a go ! Even if I wouldn't...

Think he meant his previous post with the Merc.

I could to that Ben, but where'd be the fun in that? I think I should just pay more attention when parking...

Sneak peak of what's to come:


Sadly I have a feeling the splitter will be going, question is by choice or by force...

Of all the comments I've had from all the people that have seen it, I reckon you're the first person to say they don't like the badge ;]

There comes a time in your life when you have to take a step back, look at just what it is you're doing, and wonder why you bother, and seriously consider the fact that you should really grow up and stop dicking about.

Or so I've heard...

...Until then however ;]

New adapters meant longer studs, meant new nuts, large hammers, 'arch adjustments', lowering coilovers and adding camber. As you do...

No can do, coilovers are maxed out ;] Well, I can, but it will require taking them apart and removing bits, and then the front wheels will sit too far under the arches and I won't be able to turn corners...

Yeah, wondering that myself, the splitter itself it quite tough (which probably means it'll end up ripping my whole bumper off..) but the carbon it's wrapped in is getting torn to shreads and it fraying all over the place.

Haha, I think the stock ones are going back on for winter as they're heated, so we'll see what I think, they might stay
