I attended a local car show here in Melbourne (Autosalon) this past weekend, I had a few more bits of items installed on the car, but unfortunately it was pretty much a rushed job to get the car ready for the show and some arent even completed yet
list of new mods
- LX-Mode front lip from Japan
- Fog lights from ebay
- 8000K HID for foglights
- Colour matched fog covers
- Roof painted black
- Colour matched base of front emblems
- Red leather seats (headrests, arm rest, and door trims are not done yet hence still in black colour, weird i know.....!!) My upholsterer didnt have enough time to finish it due to having a few other customers that wanted to attend the show. Currently my car is back at the upholsterer getting this stuff done
- Junction Produce neck pads
- Junction Produce tissue cover
- Custom audio install wrapped in suede (this is also not finished yet!!!), bought some MB quarts amps from USA but havent even arrived til today, sucks!! anyway, my audio gears are 2 Alpine type R subs, 1 eton amp (borrowed from a friend til my MB quarts come), and 1 pair of crescendo 2 way front speakers (sounds unbelievable). I also put a 22" LG monitor in the boot just for fun
- last but not least, I bought 4 new tyres, my front tyres were too thin imo so I now run Achilles 225/35/20, rides much better now since I dont have to worry much about potholes. Also, I had a pair of stretched 225/35/20 Wanli tyres and apparently they couldnt handle that stretch, the inner wall cracked. So I bought another Achilles tyres 235/35/20. But,,,,instead of having less stretch than my 225/35/20 Wanli, this ones have MORE stretch!!!! and yes im loving it
im really dissappointed that a few things werent quit finished yet for the show, but oh well, i guess things just dont always happen the way you wanted it to happen
On with the pics!!
For some reason the leather looks a bit glossy in this pic
clearer shot of how stretched the tyre is, hence the exposed rim

btw, im liking my LX-Mode lip ALOT!! although it was a bit pricey just a front lip, i think it complements the car well. I'll be hunting for sides and rear lip now. I cant find anything that I really like atm, so we'll see how it goes later
Enjoy the pics guys
