Subtle Improvement?

Berger · 30 Dec 2006 at 23:13

Got my car as standard earlier on this year, have been trying to subtly enhance its 1980s looks.....

Standard (bar the clear side repeaters)

And as she looks today, with 17" MG Straights on and a solid front splitter from a laguna. Also have a leather topped armrest fitted inside

Certainly an improvement

Like the MG alloys - good improvement without looking out of place like most would.

Looks better, but a little too high

Yeah i agree, but thought lowering it on crappy springs would just make the ride crappy and Koni yellows are worth almost as much as the car, dont plan on keeping her that much longer now so its not worth doing i dont think!

Fair enough

Take a picture of it on some longish grass and see if it looks lowered

Can't believe I missed this thread...

Glad you guys like the wheels, as they'll be mine soon

Karl, like the splitter, but I don't think it looks as good as the holy splitter. Maybe if it was colour coded to make the front bumper a bit lower...

Love those wheels. They look great.
