They arrived :D ... Bloody fast postage...

Anyone that thought they wouldn't look good need to rethink that... :wink:

I absolutely love them! Although looking at it now makes the boyracer in me think that I really need to dump it a bit more... Even though my head says that it's completely impractical...

And I'm grabbing a set of DBA cross dilled and slotted rotors shortly to replace my slightly warped standard ones which will improve the look behind the wheel not to mention stop my shuddering brakes... :roll:

What does everyone think?

those wheels look mad. but it looks like you need to lower it more.lol ultra lows all round.
slotted rotors will fill out the rims nicly.

I'm a duty manager at Coles supermarket... I know, very prestigious... During school time I only work a max of 15hours a week. On top of that I dismantle the odd air conditioner and collect scrap metal offcuts from my Dad. If you knew the slightest thing about scrap metal then you'd know it's worth a hell of a lot. Then during holidays I also work full time with my Dad installing air conditioners. Pull out the old one, put in a new one, get paid, dismantle the old one, take it to the scrap dealers, get paid! It's sweet 8-)

But on top of all of that I am just good at managing my money and bargain hunting! Most of the stuff I buy I manage to get for a ridiculously good price.

So there's "Sam's 17 year old's Guide to Wealth" :roll:

My Dad gives me the occasional $5 for a school lunch... That's where my parental funding ends :( Sadly my story is the truth...

only 17 is your answer. At that age, not many bills to pay
wait till 18 then the money goes to alcohol
also depends how much he had saved up

But you have done well! I am jealous! You can throw some cash this way or buy me a new sound system setup oh and since your have had practise installing it you can do mine :)

Yeh, not being a drinker helps as well. Whilst my mates are buying a pack of UDL for $40 I'm buying an LCD screen 8-)

Not having MANY bills... Hm... maybe... :roll:

Haha! F***K off! I had cash BEFORE buying my kit and wheels, I still gotta paint the kit... Then I'll once again be broke and back to saving up for the next mod... :(
Mods will be done all in good time... Besides, my 18th and tax return time pretty much coincide :D
