Thanks guys. :beer:

There's a few more things I'd like to sort out such as roll the fenders, space out the rears, change the taillights and lower it a tad more but you have to start somewhere.

Thanks!
Unfortunately it suffers from infamous crooked rear beam so I mounted a 15mm spacer on the rear right just get get it a bit more centered but as I said above, I'll sort it out.

Actually, I'm not too keen on those taillights but the OE ones I have are full of cracks and I haven't found a decent OE Hella set yet.

beautiful, is that original paint?

It had a small rust spot on the right rear panel and instead of just fixing and painting that area, the whole car was re-painted. I never saw it before the re-paint but consider it only had 5400 miles on the clock when I got it, I doubt the paint was much worse than it is now. :thumbup:

Oh, here we go again.. :D
Haha, no I'd love to go at least 1/2" lower but I haven't rolled the fenders yet and here in Sweden, the county/municipality gets extra money from the government if they make more speedbumps so this isn't one of those "the roads around here"-reasons but I can't go much lower or the car literally won't be able leave the house as they had to make Stockholm's biggest "sleeping officer" right on my street. :banghead:
