When you say shocks, do you also mean struts? I had EF struts with DB forks in the front and it grounded it nicely, but chewed the shit out of my tires.

Cheers all. The lip is off a DB6 too I believe, and yeah its plastic.

I've had the car about a month now (don't have any pics of when I bought it sorry) Bought it stock standard with 175,000 k's on its 1.6L SOHC Non-VTEC ZC engine (slow bugger) Within the first week I got some 2" lowering springs on stock struts and chucked them in. Put on some beauty rings and gold bullet valve caps. After about a week of having it at this height, I wanted more low. So I got myself some lowering springs and stock struts from an EF Civic (as the EF struts are 1" shorter than the DB struts) Installed them, and got my front tires tucking which is good. But unfortunately it took it a bit too low. Driving on the flat it would drag the mudflaps along, which I didn't mind, however the tire was also so far up into the guard that it was taking chunks out of the tire. So I raised her back up with the DB lowering bits and that it how she sits now. Interior wise it was quite tidy, did need a bit of a vacuum is all. Took the seat covers out of my old car and chucked them on. Came up with the idea to cover a section of the door cards with sugar skull patterned fabic, and also did the center arm rest. Pick up a front lip for $40 and gave it a quick test fit. I reckon it looks alright, needs a lick of paint though, hopefully I can get it attached this weekend. So, plans: Decide on some wheels, either 15x7 or 15x8 D-Window steels in White or some sort of mesh wheels Nardi or wood grain steering wheel More low (possibly coilovers) Drag flaps

Looks mean, L2rotate pics though.

Will attend in my sweet .o0HoNdA0o.

Could be keen depending on how much $ it will be.

Cbf searching the net so here we go. How did you go about rusting the bonnet? Did you just strip the paint and leave it out in the rain?

Damn, I need to get back into the OS game asap, very nice.

Will be attending in daily also.

So I finally jacked the car up to see where the damage was: This is under the front left guard: And this is the subframe on the left hand side: So I have sourced a second hand subframe in good nick, and the rest of the WoF stuff I still need to do.

Awesome, cheers.

Well 2 were destroyed, 1 had to stay on the back as is was the only one that fit.

Nah, the car has been taken to Turners I believe. Keep the Minor and we can roll around in our English cars and drink Tea.

Thanks for all the support from everyone. Luckily the process was smooth and I was paid out for the Starlet. RIP Mean Green.

Thanks all, luckily the whole process went through smoothly and I was paid out for the Starlet. RIP Mean Green, you'll not be forgotten.

Keen to go down to see Rob, maybe in the next couple of weeks?

Man I love that car, I would class it as my first OS car (other than the Scorp) And also I'm never getting the Scorp back, the guy I sold it to doesn't want to give it up haha.

Thanks all, the towie just came and picked it up to go for assessment. So we'll see what happens.

Yeah, cops showed up and I gave a statement, and I did have the right of way so I'm not in the wrong.

Yeeep, I only have 3rd party so we'll see.

Yeah I got insurance, they're coming to pick the car up today for "assessment". And yeah, she has insurance too.

Nah the rear axle is fully bent. But im fine haha.

Yeah Im quite angry too, but the lady who hit me was like 80+ and was really shaken up.

Yeah, I'm going to sound like a pussy, but I almost cried when it happend.

RIP Green Machine. Got T-Boned on my way to work
