I took my eye of the ball and hit a wall! Wrote it off...the chassis was twisted beyond repair.

Jonro2009 Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Nice, they always look better lowered and if you lower it you need to complete the look with a good set of rims/tyres. Did your insurance go up at all with the mods?Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
