My Newly Lowered Is


Recommended Posts

Havent put any pics of my car up here really yet, heres a couple, lowered on TTE coilovers (cheers Fargo)last weekend, gave it a good clean yesterday and had a go at this arty farty stuff!

Ive included a photoshop of an idea im toying with at the moment, cant really afford to splash out on a big set of 18s and my current wheels need refurbished pretty badly. So all comments and suggestions welcome.

Looks absolutely ace mate - that's the look I would like when I finally get my hands on one. Is that the TTE kit btw?

That's the TRD front & rear lip spoilers and the TRD sideskirts mate

Looks great! Dark wheels I would be jealous of!

only thing i might try is wheel spacers on the rear to push them closer out to the arch, however they may then scrub.

Is that a narrower number plate on the front?

like the close to stock look of the kit cept ive been trying to find one that would be almost identical cept ive been partial to skirts with the v-speed kit styling for some reason but would like to see on my car first who knows maybe i could find a way to do what you did with photoshop (if mine would open :tsktsk:) and graft parts on my car... like the darker rims with that styling keeping mine shiny because eventually im painting mine a custom kolor (hok mix) on black base... going to have this car a long while might as well set my goals high right...

also glad to see you liked those eyelids and not the second popular style ... that curved deal makes it look more passivist to me... :blink:

errr... pass on how low it is, lets just say its wound down pretty far :), if and when I do the anthracite wheels I might lower it a tad more.

Thanks for all comments, im very pleased, yes I have the c west eyelids, they are off being painted properly, not sure if im sold on keeping them on the car yet. I actually photoshopped the eyelids on that pic with the wheels to see how it might look!

Definatly considering spacers at the moment, possibly only slightly at the front and a good bit more at the rear.

Next move is a Prolex Kazama, hopefully should be on next month sometime.

And yep sorry, had custom plates made to fit the black plastic plinth at the front and one to fill the gap properly at the rear.

Did you get the plates from a shop, internet or cut them down yourself...had any issues with MOT/police?

the cops have had a few double takes at the front plate but usually never bother doing anything about it, guess im just lucky so far.

As for mot, I have a full sized front one to stick over the top.

I got them from a company that specialises in plates in Belfast. However a few of my friends have been able to order them on the net, fancyplates.com or something?

Wow looks very nice. I wish my car was that low.

This looks like TRD spoiler. I've seen then on eBay a few time. Here is link.

Fook me, weird the way one spoiler is $79 and one $279, im guessing one of them must be genuine or something just?

Thanks for the comments, such a difference a bit of lowering can do!

Got a slightly better photoshop done to give me a better idea of how it will look with anthracite wheels, think ive made my mind up and ill get it done when the weather gets a little better!

Interior as standard is gorgeous I think to be honest. Not really anything id change, except maybe a brand new standard gearknob, the woman who owned it before me must have worn a few rings as its scratched to bits in only 35k!

I have a B&M Short shift kit, Alpine double din dvd player screen with a custom ipod slot down at the ashtray. Maybe after I sort the exhaust and wheels ill get a good set of components up front and a nice custom install for the boot... oh the list goes on!

cheers for the kind words again chaps, ill keep you posted with its progress!
