^this is Africa.

I just got her back from Alberante around 4pm today, still got that new paint smell, lol. E90 mirror covers look great and can't wait to fit the E90 mirrors.
The car looks near perfect, I can say 9/10. Will have a good look at her under my garage lights tonight, so glad to have her back. ARC guys were seriously impressed with the mods on the car, the first modded touring to come through their doors apparently.

Wonderful, they broke all my relatively brand new carpet clips...:thumbdo:

 

[Gizmo]

I grossly over estimated the initial rating of 9/10, looks more like 6/10 as the long dent in the bonnet is still there! They didn't replace the hood lining like they said they would and they broke all 8 of my floor mat clips.:blueCry:
At least they got the colour match correct...

To make me feel a little better I replaced the 18x9J rears with 18x8J and brand new Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE002's to match the front so now Im running a square setup (18x8J ET35 all round) with 225/40/18 non directional tyres so at least I can rotate left to right and front to back to get the full life out of my tyres. Going to the 8J has stopped the 9J's rear tyres rubbing on the fenders when I have rear passengers, yay.














Also got some 'error free' LED park lights from goldwagen. They have 4 smd and pretty bright.




Matches with the LED licence plate lights.

That touring looks incredible. I'd love one of those to replace the itch I have for getting a bakkie. Nothing like going to the dump in style :roflol:

 

[osiris]

You have made that car something special, it looks incredibly clean!
