    cheers for the great feedback..yeah i thought about trim colour coding but i kinda like the way the black moldings break up the colour.. other wise it might start looking like a great big grasshopper.

    Totally agree about the grille..the holden one is kkkrap. Been hunting for someone in the UK who will ship one over.

    Some better plates on the way to replace the chunky yellow ones.. IGR-33N Click here to enlarge

    Mad/CN, the springs were 35mm lower, unfortunately it scrapes a little on the rear when pushing it around hairpins (hopefully swaybar might help)

    What do you guys recommend.. the whiteline or kmac? Both seem to have different ways of mounting.

    looks good!


    i hate the way the back bumper is never low enough to be in line with the side skirts or low enough to match the front bar - that irritates me with all cars tho.

    I've always thought exactly the same thing Dee....would be good if it was low enough to cover the spare wheel bay bulge etc. too Click here to enlarge

    But on the flip side, the TS does already have a large flat rear end, any deeper and it makes it look really fat and bulbous...

    Appologies for going off topic K.E.R. as mentioned yours looks alright Click here to enlarge

    otherwise mate - good to see that your car is coming along nicely.
    i'd leave the side strips as it breaks up the green.
    but do color-code the side skirts though.

    go with whiteline rear swaybars. a number of members here have it installed. i haven't heard much about the kmac version.
