Post by: Neo Badness on 09 January 2010, 02:10
I finally spent the 5mins to figure out Photobucket.

This is my Mk2 16v

These are the coils I took off :shocked:

These are the new ones complete with bumpstops

Big shout to Fat Boab for putting up with my spannering ineptitude and general assistance. :cool:

This is a complete cock, why don't things just work like they're supposed to?

They work perfectly well on another forum, just wasted 20mins resizing them to upload to photobucket and it's doing the same thing.
Someone want to enlighten me as to what rudimentary mistake/school boy error I'm making?

Just had a look at your photobucket album. They're working as they should. You have just uploaded a bunch of 100pixel wide images.

You managed to upload this one at the correct resolution tho

Ok, I'll put my hands up, I admit I was being a bit of a willy :embarassed:

Classic example of why you should reason through a problem, rather than spitting the dummy and blame everything/one else :grin:

New coils complete with b/stops

Have sorted the slight reverse rake in that photo so sits about perfect now.

Cheers to Maxp for pointing out the obvious....

Would seem that my ineptitude stretches to uploading images too :grin:

Sorted now though so at least I learned something today

They look like BBS-RS-GT or BBS-CH?

They are, I believe, BBS RX one piece 16x7.

Got some new wheels for a giggle and also deciding whether a set of 17in toplines are too big for running this low :undecided:

Giggle rims below, very much a work in progress, will finish them soon tho.
