yeah it generally does split opinion, some people are literally like "what the fuck have you done to your car?!"
and then some people go crazy for it! it's certainly marmite for sure.

And rough around the edges is kind of my style to be honest, it just happens to my cars. I race in autosolos and autograss races, i'm not part of a league or championship or anything it's all very amature. But get's competitive in my under 1300 NA class! lot's of minis. My best result is 3rd out of 15. all that said it aint a race car it's a shit little student car that get's abused most of the time it's i'm in the seat lol.

Yeah i know they're fuckin hench, my plan is keep the spacers on the front, whilst i'm getting some 15" steels banded then put the bandeds on the front and put the spacers on the rear and put arches over all 4 wheels. i'm not a fan of tyre stretch though so im keeping it all proper tyre fitment. dont want one popping off racing haha. That'd be a daywrecker for sure.

actually, i've taken the stickers off now.



i realized this when a tastefully modified polo went by, and it had class and legitimacey and then i thought stickerbombing is pretty cheap and tacky really. so scrapes those bitches off, next dry day the boots going black too.

unless i can get hold of a boot with a spoiler then i'll put that on. NOT a fuck off wale tail, you know the standard ones on the quicker corsas
