Hey guys, before i start i kno i kno, many of you will call me a ricer and what not but i still gotta do it!

I started going LED crazy and thanks to omar put in nice smooth blue led's in the rear passenger courtesy lights and front 'main' light, which in my opinion looks pretty sweet with the black leather interior.

Now comes the fun bit! i want to put LED's in the front grille and under the car..WHY? coz i can!. Dilemma is which colour? red i think wont suit fullstop, plus i rekon the car will just look like a mobile brothel!..so do i keeping going with the current 'blue' theme or just go hardcore angel white on the exterior and undercar?

Still yet to change the footwell bulbs to blue leds and the ccfl's are just sitting at home waiting to be installed for the front under door. and rear passenger footwells too.

I figured while iam colour coding why not go calipers too? for that iam thinking just standard brembo red.

Heres a pic of the actual car:

and a really bad phone camera shot of the interor:

oh btw am jizzin in me pants bout gettin the car lowered tomorrow, ye old kings superlows in front and lows in rear on account of ill be gettin a big ass gas tank installed soon!

Now that iam broke it back to page one of the saving book for a new pair of rims! WOO!!:facejump:

yeah i agree if you 'MUST' do it.. only do it with white under a black car..

but seriously why would you put em under your car... isn't it illegal? so you will never even be able to turn them on

NINJA EDIT: i think its purely............................... WANK FACTOR!

haha i totally agree with you whipped cream, ill look back in a few months and think what the ****** was i thinking when i did that, and iam quite aware ill be bored of the whole rice revolution in about 6 months, so ill either change colour or take them down then, but till that time still gotta do it! lol:nuts:

aye white would look pretty decent i suppose! white with the calipers too? or would they just get stupidly dirty damn quick?

If you were to do white in the grille, you would be able to have them on while driving (considered as parkers or DRL's) :)

I ment they can be legally used declaring them as parkers or DRL's, of course you wire them through a switch...

ended up gettin pedders superlows in front and heavy duty lows in rear coz i too am about to get a gas tank..and last thing i want is to have it drop from the tank THEN from passengers and scrape every damn road in victoria!

Damn mofo's took 6 hours to fit them on, issue first time, so thought they were given the wrong springs, likewise 2nd time, finally fixed the issue (turns out they were the right springs in the first place) damn doofus's!

Mind you though i love the look of the car now! and i leant too when cars are higher they look thinner!! now that its been dumped it looks ALOT wider!

but HOLY S*&T the ride! Rougher then sandpaper myfriends! BUT i suppose that a sacrifice ive got to make!

Now just scouring cheapbay for good prices on LEDS for my ricemobile and comparing it to the likes of super cheap and autobarn!

haha nup old stock shocks! GREAT ride! lol..Just hit the 150,000 mark so ill have to start saving the pennies hardcore for a major MAJOR service!:eek2: That and some nice rims.

Hope fully if i get home before it gets dark ill take some pics of the car. Love the look of it, just missing some nice chrome rims (keep the chrome theme going). For the calipers iam either thinking brembo red, pearl/metallica white OR silver.:woot:

ill have to take em out anyway coz from what ive reading and seeing pedders just arnt gonna go long enuf so i suppose ill have to compress the springs (no race tracking or 1/4 mile romps so quality of handling not that big an issue). Eventually ill get around to going the proper way about this and gettin actual coilovers.

you think that is a bumpy ride, wait till you get the 20's you want... i can't even take the exit on the highway near my house, i have to take the 1st exit and drive through melton because there is a bump on a bridge and my wheels(having very low profile tyres) just slam the ******* into it and it hurts :(

nice car mate, will watch this with great interest :)
