Hey norm was just wondering will you be keeping those wheels or are you planning to change them?

Any chance of getting bigger pics NiceM8? All of the one's you've posted lately have been small and the resize hasn't been kind, find yourself a free host somewhere so you don't have to get 'em under the AMC attachment restrictions.
Looking nice, but I'm wanting to see it in more detail, specifically the body kit (thinking about maybe making one similar)

I've never used photobucket or imageshack (I have my own domain for hosting), but for trying to attach here on AMC, you should still be able to get a better image size and quality, under the filesize limits, by resizing first with a decent free tool like irfanview (http://www.irfanview.com/) (also ****s over windows' built-in viewer, as well as good resizing), or The GIMP (http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/) (a free photoshop replacement).
Just try resizing with various settings and save a copy, experiment with the variables until you get the best quality and size that still fits under the AMC limitations.
Or I think you can even use facebook as a host, upload the pic, and (under firefox, IE doesn't have this) right clic and "view image"; this will show your pic by itself, copy the URL from the toolbar, and paste!
I THINK I've tried this before and it worked, but possibly it might be restricted to whether the end user can view the profile of the uploader?

i still have all the 18 inch rims , i have had a few problems with the front making a lot of noise , so for now i have gone back to the 15 on the front , after taking the 18 off i have had to change both ball joints , both cv's and both tie rod ends , i like the 18 on the front but i do approx 70,000 klm per year and i think the 18 dont give the front much cushioning , what i would like to do is buy a pair of 16 for the front in chrome that match the back or sell the set of 18 and buy a matching set of 18 for the back and 16 for the front , i think it would look cool ,

the fabric is from wilson's , its has a high rub factor ( means it will last awhile ) is easy to clean and is almost waterproof (this was tested after leaving the sunroof open on a rainy day :headbange ) it is very easy to clean , i had a bloke in campbelltown make them for me only cost $1200 to do the whole car plus material , these are pics of when i had it done so it now dosnt have the red gear stick knob or the rada steering wheel , cheers norm

Much better:clap:
Kinda in two minds about those rear pods; they look interesting, and I like the idea of just having the bits at the side rather than all across the back, but not sure if the top of them flows with the lines of the bumper sides... Any chance of posting up better pics of the ones you posted in "post your ride"?
[EDIT]Hmm, might have to try putting my sub like that, my box is about that size but it's pointing at the back. Didn't think of facing it upwards, might fit in a bit better...
Also, what's that box thing on the roof behind the rear light? I think I've seen one once at a wreckers, but the lock on the tailgate was gone so couldn't open it to look (and couldn't be bothered climbing over the back seat to get to it)

the little box thing near the back light is for attaching a baby seat harness ,
and i think your right with the rear pods , i like them beacause thats all i could get but i would like them to wrap all the way around and link with the other side , not to big , but would help to finish it off , and your right they dont look like they follow the lines to well this is because i done the front lip and rear pods first and done the side skirts about 6 months later and i dont think the side skirts are big enough to match , and incase you want to get them the front lip is a wrx mold , side skirts are a nissan exa mould extended and the rear pods are for a bmw , cheers norm

Your car looks amazing Norm, the body kit looks very neat and i'd love to have both the sunroof and roof racks. Interior looks pretty good too, not my colours personally but they go well with your car. Only request from me would be to change the gear stick knob, the red doesn't quite go with the rest of the car.
Nice work, Norm.
