I had to ditch the chrome surround as it was a completely different shape, so I sewed in the elastic from the original gaiter. That way the new one fits like the original :) I will get a chrome surround to fit at a later date. Also, I am going to chop the gear stick rod down a bit so the whole lot sits lower :)

Don't lie, you got a woman to do it.  :wink:  :grin:

Tried to test fit my new rims today! Absolute fail though. I haven't needed to jack up my car since I fitted the coilovers but, knowing its low, I reversed onto a block of wood so I could get the jack under. Still couldn't get it under. Fail. I really need a low reach jack lol! anyway, I'm off to a mates garage tomorrow so hopefully I can use his :)

Hahaha, I will struggle lol! Seriously though, I have two scissor jacks in the boot and If I really need to I could rip off the front splitter and jack up on the front subframe until the car is high enough to get the other jack under where the appropriate wheel :D

Finally got to test fit my new Porker rimage!!!









I'm really happy with the way she will be sitting with the 30/25mm adapters. And wrapped in some 195/45/16's they'll fit snuggly in the arch with minimal work :)
