Will get one after next clean :)

Think the adjuster cups will be coming out though, the back really is quite high in comparison!

It's a Canon 400d oddly enough, it's my Dad's though! Looking at getting a 450d soon so I don't have to keep stealing his.
They're really good cameras, excellent for learning photography on!!

haha, I'm thinking a few months down the line, got a fair bit to pay off yet :(

not sure really, it's booked in for wheel alignment on tuesday, so whilst it's there, naturally it's being custom coded lmao!

after that.. don't really know, front brake upgrade.. ICE to be done in the summer (still got my Alpine DVD headunit in the garage!) and all that kinda stuff!

I wanted to wait til warranty expired originally ... But sod it, still got over 2 years remaining yet.. Will blag it haha!!

Will be waiting til the brakes NEED doing also before doing them, it seems a shame to get rid!

Right, was busy last weekend...

The Milltek arrived a week yesterday, and fitted last weekend. It's rattling against the underside of the car atm, but I've tried and tried, and just can't stop it.. So visiting PSI tomorrow for them to sort the general alignment of it, as it sticks slightly wrongly out of the hole too..

Also took the adjusters out of the rear suspension, and it sits PERFECTLY now - Love it!

Then, after the Cheshire meet on Sunday.. I got some nice pics of it :clap:

Here they are:

Rear adjuster cups out:

Nice shots I took:

Then finally, some photoshops done with the new shots..

Hopefully I'll have the funds next year to do most of the work shown ;)
