the 8 so far.... ready this week:)
Been a while since ive been on but here is pics of the 8 so far:
First on the list was a HKS Legamax exhaust and Veilside carbon bonnet.
Started like this
10.5j Volks on rear and 9.5j on the front.
Then we managed to get hold of an original Veilside D1 GT skirts and rear bumper and so the work began.
Debadge the whole car and a one off paint scheme was on the cards, so off to KN solutions was in order.
Then we managed to get hold of the front bumper.......but it was the worst fitting bumper we had ever seen
Stripping began
Coilovers were ordered and put on and dropped 110mm
Side skirts were trial fitted and all i can say is the fit was perfect and no work was needed on themwhich was a great result
Because of the wide wheels the arches needed to be stretched by 2 inches
me being blonde and liking girly things I wanted a colour that isnt common and will let people know she is coming. So some House of Kolor Hot pink pearl was ordered. The colour in real life is amazing and is so bright and deep everyone including all the blokes who have seen it have commented how nice the colour is. It gives of a blue/purple flick under a light.
The car is going two tone pink and black.
the wheels have been refurbed and colour changed and the car is pained now.
Only thing to do is paint the bumpers and put everything back together.

Its house of Kolor hot pink pearl with a white base, its pink but it has lots of blue and purple tones, it still needs to be flatened and polished in those pics

unfortunatle the headlamp washers are took big to fit in bumper.
dabating whether a set of feed side steps will be cool or ott as the ones for the 7 look the **** on the 8
