Looks real nice Simon. That's an AW with style.

Don't cover that bottom white line it's cool.

In fact I wonder what it'd look like with wrap up to the groove above the indicators... Leaving that lower lip white line for effect.

Just gotta sort a minor front bumper bend from the looks of it mate? One wee ga-doink to undo? It happens...

Engine looks mint. Love it. One mean green powered machine.

Those mags are hard to beat too on an AW - the spokes and rims are way cool eh. (Funny that I like 'em but no apologies, they are very cool old skool).

I'm jealous, you have 15's whereas my ones (similar style) are only 14's.

How's the ride? Does it handle the open road ok or is it more of a city cruiser with that suspension?

My T-top AW sits like that and it corners something mental but it's as hard as hell if you hit a pot-hole. Not bouncy, just bloody hard. How's your one ride mate?

Yea I would be keen to see the valley running around the midway point of the car carbon taped too that would look awesome.

ok so to cover my but as a good driver the car came with the bumper damage ( which i have a replacement for that need's to be painted which will happen when i get around to a full respray )

the bottom white line isnt left white lol its just white insulation tape

i got the springs and shocks off travis, the shocks are just factory reconditioned and shortened with some older lowering springs not sure on the brand it sits nice and low but is still soft enough to be comfortable but firm enough to handle well

when i get around to it and get her up to cert standard ill put the coilover's in

if your interested in the rims they are http://www.priceme.co.nz/ORIGINAL-GOODS ... 51788.aspx" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
i think the nz distributor is on trademe

i plan at some stage to carbon wrap the side skirts and white strip them to to complete the affect
and have considered doing the little dip halfway up the only issue being applying the wrap straight enough
