First Look: 02 Hatch

[RollaRollin]

Borrow'd a mates 1000D (my 40D sutter failure) to get some snaps of the new wheels.

Weather was overcast and the shoot only lasted about 10 minutes before it was just too wet.

Got a few decent shots in the limited time though and am extremely happy with the car.

Didn't clean the car or the wheels beforehand, so there may be traces of dirt :P

Major Mods include:

- DVD/MP3/CD HU

- Sportivo Axle Back Exhaust

- Removed Trim

- Colour Coded Door Handles

- 17' Wheels

- HID's

[RollaRollin]

I honestly don't know, how do I find it?

I love em, not that keen on chrome, but for $280 im pretty stoked, when i saw them i just handed my cash over right away. All in perfect condition except for slight gutter rash on one, but apart from that, mint.

There was no problem! The sale included wheel bolts (euro) not nuts which is what threw me at first.

My mechanic said they wouldn't fit due to not being enough stud, and honestly it didn't look like there was any there at all.

Problem being there is a taper and made it look like nothing was there.

Got some of those hex head bolts from a specialty wheel shop ($40 for 16 ) and they fit absolutely perfect with plenty of turns and thread

I'm stoked, just need to clean the wheels up a bit with some polish and good to go

i nearly bought the same rims in 19'' for my wagon! i have always liked these rims on really low cars.... time to get low!

How did you colour code the handles, that's what I want to know. I've seen people do it before but it just all flakes and falls off over time. :(

I want to colour code mine without having to find a wrecked conquest in simpson red ><
