what justify's a ricer nowadays anyhow?

everyone complains about thats rice and this is rice.. but i mean stereos that go doof doof is rice, leds are rice, neons are rice, 18s are rice... so really i guess its just what you do and dont like!

Personally i think if you have a dark car go for the clear lights with black inside and not chrome as it tends to look very tacky out and of place. Chrome/clear lights without blackening suite a lighter colour like silver or white i think anyhow..

The wing, well if i was a coles dollar saver maybe.... but as said most definately without the wing i think it'd look good but the car.

Lose the wing, dark rear lights and lower it and it'll look sweet! but thats just my opinion.. still looks very nice as it is!

How much for the lights shugg and how easy were they to put in???

Very nice car indeed though. makes me a bit jealous. :lol:


$320 (includes postage)

www.ozeparts.com.au

Very easy to install. They already come with the globes inserted. No need to use the old ones. Take out the old unit and put in the new one.

Shugg


they are cheaper on ebay dude

I like your car, but I've always thought the C2R kit is a more sleek kit and looks better with a normal AU spoiler.

The Hawk/TS50 goes more with a TS50 kit as thats a tankier kit. Maybe its just me.. but thats what i rekon looks wrong about your car.


Yeh, you may be onto something there!

Overall a good package. If you were up to that stage where you want something 'different' and you have the money then we could be really picky. Lowering it an inch max will change the whole stance a fair bit.


Unfortunatelly, the front bar is too chunky. I bottom out/scrape with the bar and the exaust. I would only be able to lower it if I changed the front bar and done more modifications to the exhaust.

[quote="blinkAU"]Do you have a front on shot of the car shrug or with the blinkers/lights on? They loook ok on your car. quote]

I have placed another photo of a front end shot in my gallery. It is a bit reflective, but it may give you an idea of how they look together from the front.

I saw an AU yesterday that had a way better front spoiler that I have seen to date. I should of got a pic but it had was meshed up and sorted of looked like it had a triangular peice going down. But yes the Lights always unbalances the AU fronts in my Opinion. They are to Triangular
