Awesome!

It’s the small, simple mods that make a difference!

Today I was at my engineers and found some 46mm aluminium bar. So I got him to make me some wobble block things. Don't think it made any noticeable difference and with my winter wheels I cannot see them in my mirror anyway. I believe it helps to keep the rear hangers stable Image. Its a no loss mod so why notImageImage

Hi buddy, if you’re seeing a benefit with the wobble blocks you might want to replace the aluminium ones with steel or anodised aluminium as untreated aluminium will corrode (galvanic corrosion) when in contact with mild steel, worse if/when the block and the hangers get covered in road salt.

You'll have to upload a pic when they're back on with new tyres.

Wheels look tidy.

Warmer weather means only 1 thing. Summer wheels and new rubber. Went with 225 35 20 size tyre this time. Much better ride than the 30 profile.

Lowered the rear down 1 notch as I raised it with the winter wheels.
Also fitted rear spats to complete the lowline kit.ImageImageImage

Polished the rear lights as they were dull and abit too dark. Looks more oem now and adds some colour.
I think the back needs some exhaust tips nowImageImage
