Small Update |

So i bought myself a few birthday presents, simply because i could lol, and one of which happens to be in the pic below
:) It shall be a boat no longer! Not looking forward to how much more rough the rear will feel though. The car is pretty bad as it is. But i am very keen to see how it handles afterwards, because it handles like a go-kart already... It's just a bit "sloppy" through chicane-type turns |

I've also started polishing the lips of the bbs rims that had been painted silver by a previous owner.
I painted the centers bright orange, for max JDM respect of course ;) and now i've finally started cleaning them up. Here's the BEFORE |

and the AFTER
(5 hours worth of wet sanding and some very sore hands later...) I still have much more to do. I will try to finish them off tomorrow |

Up close you can see i still have a fair bit to go.
Those little bits of paint left around the valves is testing my patience. |

Looks great.
What springs/coilovers are you using? |

Thank you guys :)
OZChris: Coilovers? I wish lol. I'm running, shall we say, "custom" springs. Previous owners doing, not mine. Will run coilovers when i can afford it. RTK: That's actually my plan for the weekend haha. I will get a start on that this arvo and post some pics later :) |

Ozchris: Daewoo Matiz front struts and springs with Barina rear shocks work - some modding needed though
Azman89: awesome :) |
