Australia G'day from Oz (Aurion)

Hey, I have posted shots months ago of my stock SX6 Aurion, but the mods have started, so here is the progress. Lowering gets done in 2 weeks, will drop it by 50mm (2 inches) and then some rims........heres a photo of her stock





now windows tinted



So every long journey starts with a small step, hopefully I can get the car to look attractive enough but not too extreme (I think you guys say "Ghetto", hehehe)

these are the wheels I am planning on throwing on her, 18 inches....

I can get a set of 18's with tyres for $2k (Oz) or I can get a set of 20's sent up from sydney for the same price, but they are a different brand but similar design.....I am not sure how much ride comfort will be compromised by going a 20 inch rim, but they sure would look sweeter........hehehehehe. I am thinking 18's to be honest.........

20's will be rough riding. 18's are a good compromise.

Cheers, thanks for the comments. They are definetely a top car, they only negative I can say about them is the lack of IPOD input in our head units and I find the black colour a b!tch to keep clean................like all black cars I suppose.

can your headlight projector adjust the angle?
I saw the projectors in the top of line Camry in Taiwan will adjust the angle according to the direction you are heading. It has a small motor in the back.

It will be something nice to have...
