yep thats the ones, they do look a lot lighter on the picture there...but yeah theyre a true gunmetal colour, close to anthracite grey. I found them on ebay, absolute bargain! done 2000 miles, no scuffs or stone chips and came with TOYOs all round, all for £350!!!

Looking good! Lowered by 30mm or so it would sit lovely.

EDIT: Had to add in I need to say how much I love those wheels on the GP again lol.

Yeah lowered next, really fancy sportlines, seems to be the favoured springs on here anyway, either them or JOM blueline coilies...

They're beautiful right? Not being biased

I used that road on a weekly basis with work going up to Ayrshire.

Ah lucky you haha! Used to be a lot better before they cut all the forest down was like driving through a Finnish rally stage...without the dirt

 

[Cairnsy]

So since I was an idiot and bought too many sidelights I thought I would put them to use and tried them in my licence plate lights...

So here's a quick before and after:
Before

After

Not much difference in person but my phone camera seemed to see a difference...

 

[Most Easterly Pandas]

Like you say, look the same, but I know over time they make a good difference. You getting bulb failure? What LEDs did you use

Hopefully..they're just 5W5 Phillips Bluevision bulbs, no LED's never realised when I bought my headlights that they came with sidelights so I ordered another pair and they were sitting doing nothing sooo in they went haha

 

[Most Easterly Pandas]

Ah right, I thought they were LEDs

 

[Cairnsy]

What would I do if I never had unlimited upload space...haha a few shots from my phone after a quick wash and winter wax..

Going to try and get mudflaps on tomorrow hopefully if I can get a screw extractor set and my front licence vinyl, door pillars in gloss black and my window tint dot matrix are all getting taken care of on Tuesday!

Now looking at lowering springs/coilovers, so if anyone has any suggestions or tips then as always feel free to comment!
