Howdy all,

I've done a few things to the car since you guys have last seen it so I thought I'd get them up so you can check them out.

1. Had the bumpers and sideskirts colour coded to suit the rear garnish.
2. Did a quick paint job to put my exhaust pipes into stealth mode (good ol' matt black)
3. Got a set of 17's, Advanti Predators (the crowd goes wild)

What do you guys think? I have intentions of getting it lowered but nothing too drastic. Enjoy.

P.S. Each pic is either a beofre or after so open two at a time to get the difference.

looking sharp, yeah it needs to be lowered, how much did you pick up the rims for?

Not quite sure what they normally cost but I know the guy I got them and he said he'd give them to me for $1100 straight up or $800 if I sold him my previous wheels. I justified it this way... I'm paying $200 for each NEW 17" rim and trye.

looks good as said before needs to be lowered

Cheers for the input. I'm thinking of re-doing the chrome strips on the doors just above the sideskirts. Any ideas on how to go about doing this?

MUCH better.

tho personally I would have color coded the bumper and bump strips to the body color... or 2-tone the whole thing :)

I know what you mean Astron, but I like my car to be an individual, and there wouldn't be a tow tone like mine getting around that's got it's paint in that sort of condition.

Appreciate the feedback, keep it coming.

Oh man definitely two-tone the bottom half... You've got your black bumpers, now make everything under that black side stripping black too!!! :D

Chrome strips can be had from Supercheap Auto for about $20 per roll... You'll need two of them. Bring in a short strip of your original stuff to match up :)

YES! Panda Wagon. That'd be awesome.

I'm a big 2-tone fan

So just peel off the old and put on the new? How'd you go with that PM Lucifer, any thoughts?

I'm doing similar (if I ever get around to finishing it!), my side strips are stratos grey, am doing the bumpers as well, though contemplating how to possibly two-tone them to make the design a bit less pedestrian.
Thinking about also doing my spare rear garnish in the stratos, but also trying to incorporate the TS "faux lights".

Not really keen to paint the bottom of the door panels, might make up side skirts and paint them to even it out a bit.
