My mini photoshoot...
It's been a few weeks since the my car had a good clean and it was a nice day so I decided to give it a quick clean, but that turned into a 3 hour session...
I used turtlewax wash, followed by a coat of 3M Finesse-it Finishing polish (borrowed from a bodyshop ;-)) on the front end and bonnet and finished off with some Maguiar's Gold Class wax all over. I'm pretty happy with the results, shame it wont look the same after a few days driving though..

Cheers Fella's!
Washed first with Turtlewax then went over them with Wonder Wheels... Quote:
I'm looking at getting some H&R sport spring with spacers, anyone know what size spacers I can get away with before the wheels start to rub..? |

Standard ET alloys then go 10mm front 12mm rear and longer bolts to match
FWIW, SSDD Motorsports can sort you the spring, spacer and extended wheel bolts and locking nuts
