billdingo Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Great mechanic, terrible at paperwork tho. Your pic has just reminded me that I need to chase him up for some invoices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he's been a top bloke the last 3 times I've been there. @Deano - Yeah, once this new project has finished, still plan to have the car wrapped. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glrnet Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 That can't be right, it has a rear bumper Not sure about the grey though but as we always say it's your car and if you like it who cares about the face weeers Never thought I'd say that on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially liking the Nardo grey the new rs Audi's have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grundy Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Couple of updates on Eleanor's new look. Currently contemplating a new colour for the wheels. 295/35/18 Rear and 265/35/18 Front In for some body work changes.. Final Outcome Got a little bit more of the arch to chop away, I currently have 20mm spacer on the front and 0 on the back. I tried 25mm on fronts and 20mm on the rear. It sat perfectly, however it scrubbed a bit on a trial run. Only on cambered roads with pot holes. So hopefully after some more gutting away and tweaking, I can get the wheels sat flush again.

Grundy Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Oh, and it's been raised a smidge, and the camber is finally gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Like the wide tyres Matt. Are you ever going to get a proper rear bumper though or is that look there to stay? Just wondered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grundy Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Woh where did my reply go Or did I forget. For now it's staying like that. - If a cheap ginge JDM one does come up, I'll purchase it However there is a bumper I love in the states, but it's a tad pricey. No it's not the V3, but I'd have that in a heartbeat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I am surprised that you haven't been pulled driving without a rear bumper. WOuld have thought that it was illegal for reasons of safety.

GMballistic Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 well, actually its been mentioned a few times but Granville obviously doesn't understand subtlety ...I get it but just don't always feel it's necessary. Woh where did my reply go Or did I forget. For now it's staying like that. - If a cheap ginge JDM one does come up, I'll purchase it However there is a bumper I love in the states, but it's a tad pricey. No it's not the V3, but I'd have that in a heartbeat Fair enough then. As Ceejay stated though I am surprised the Police haven't pulled you up on it. They must be too busy catching real criminals round your area. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, no safety concerns as there are no sharp/danger edges protruding the body work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
