    Got new tyres on Monday!

    Set of Pirelli Dragon 185/60 R14s on the front now, to go with the set on the back. Car now actually handles well Plenty of grip at the front, feels like its tightened the suspension going over bumps too. Had the old fronts put on my drift rims too, so I'm (finally) all set to get sideways on the track again.

    Also had the front left indicator light blow out, made the ticker go nuts. Didn't realise that was the cause until some woman yelled out to me "use your indicator!". It was too early in the morning on the way to work for me to care, but that was the issue. All fixed now!

    Anyone know if camber tops work on stock struts with upgraded shocks/springs? Need to correct a camber difference in the front end (left front is -2* stock, right front is -0.7*). Plus the obvious advantage of improving front end grip more

    hey mate, looks like a very tidy car,

    i reckon you should paint the bumpers in panda paint scheme, and get some silver bump strips on the doors to make it look all JDM... but that's just me.

    LOL yeah, silver panda turns me on a bit (eewwwww), I'm thinking of painting the bumpers black until I can afford a kit to put on it (which will be all black, I think). And cut out the rust, which is growing due to the recent rain

    The rear lights show the car was originally red, should take off the tail lights and paint under the Sprinter emblem in the top right cause its red atm

    Uh...
    You will come to notice the 'Sprinter' logo on the RHS taillight is a red garnish. Hence it is always red regardless of the cars original colour. It's built into the taillight itself.
