    PS Please: lowered ride height.

    If someone could have a go at lowering the car, notably cleaning up the rear which is too high in my opinion.

    If you have any hawt rims, throw them on too :)

    Cheers

    I think it is perfect as it sits. Don't change any part of that car.

          Can I ask what you consider "hawt rims"? Because the ones you have right now are already nice!!

          I agree with everyone else. Your car looks perfect the way it is.

              I consider BBS LM's, RS's and RY's nice wheels, along with the style #5s that are on there now.

              Its actually hard to tell in that picture due to the shadow, but the rear is elevated and also has larger tires on it (from the previous owner). I will rectify this at some stage.

              I'm not "dumping", "slamming" or "pimping" this car in any way.

              Nothing drastic, maybe slightly lower than the front...

              I would also be curious to see someone play around with the color of the rims that are on there now.

                Well here are a couple with the rear slightly lowered. The front is pretty much the same height still.

                  Nice chop, looks great.

                  How about gold centres?

                  If you can find some LM's or RS's (I dont have any appropriate shots of either) throw them on.

                  Loving your work.

                  Cheers

                    Gold on Lachs doesn't look the best. I think some LM's would look nice, RS's definitely, but the 5's are hot as HELL!!

                      The nogaro centers look great.

                          Agreed. Nogora suits Lachssilber.

                            I'll look for a good example of the two wheels you wanted to see but here are the gold centers for now...
