Got my j-spec rs bar fitted on sunday. Carl ( killa ) did a fantastic job with straightening & painting. Still have to fit the fog light garnishes when they arrive. I'm going to order a slimline front plate & move it up to the correct spot on the bar.

Being it is an a-spec I had to wire the extra spot light. I got a extra fog light switch & wire from park light with a relay. To make it look standard I got another rear wiper/demister switch housing & mounted both fog light switches into it. I also had to bridge the dimmer switch.

I've also started repainting my 18" wheels. Only done 1 so far so will not refit to car until I have a chance to do the others. As you can see I changed from the shaddow chrome to black. Hope you like guys.

Thanks mate. Its addictive. I can't stop changing things. I have some rain guards turning up this week as well as a power window switch that illuminates. The fact that a night you can not see the buttons is stupid.

Scott, next time you are near my joint, pop in and I'll give you the slimline number plate mount I made for mine. It mounts the plate up high so it doesn't interfere with airflow. It needs a new piece of acrylic in the front and a polish up but at least, it might give you a template or some ideas of how to make a better one.

Thanks rob. I'll pop around either wednesday night or sunday morning. I'll call first.

I took a pic of the painted wheel on the car. Have only painted 1 so far. Been busy with TAFE.

Finally got the rest of the wheels painted & back on the car. I got an Eterna grill for GVR40 . I tried it on to see what it looked on the car. He has picked it up from me so I have the standard grill back on, but am now going to look for 1 .

I have also switched to Speed Density & am tunning for 25psi.

Yeah that looks awesome! All you need to do is get a J-spec rear bumper and paint your bonnet too! Will look like my old car then!

Great stuff!
I've been debating if i TRY keep things stock looking in my engine bay and paint my new pipework black. In an effort to keep cops off my back.
Looking at your engine bay, its harder and harder to resist!
That looks so neat!
