Are your tail lights the Alltrack tinted version or is it just the photos?
You gonna leave it at standard height for those lovely Irish roads?
Factory lights , come with the Xeon lights,
I’d love to lower it but I like to drive hard ha. And I’m over the hole minding every speed ramp and dip in the road.

I wasn't aware that the tinted rears were standard issue with xenon headlights, that's a nice little bonus.
What drew my attention was the difference between the tail lights and the bumper reflectors but I think the non-tinted reflectors go well in the red bumper, almost vanish in the red.

Few bits done this week
Got the bars and mud flaps on
And the back ply lined and carpeted wasn’t to fussy what way the carpet was done as it’s a work van but looks better then just ply

And I gave it it’s first wash .. it’s so easy to wash with the ceramic coating

Finally lowered it last night
Think we went a little to low for my liking so will raise it up a bit later
Only now can you really see how far out the back wheels sit.

Iv been playing around with the damper settings and yes I think I will be staying this low as it’s nearly as comfortable as standard

Just need to sort out the sliding door clearance with the alloys now

Was helping a friend today fitting slabs in a house so when we finished their was a nice place to take photos across the road and the sun came out so we took a few photos ImageImageImage
