Deano If you keep driving it around like that it really keeps the mileage down  Nick |

Looks good Dean, but I have a few questions.
No mags?
No wipers?
And did you put the weber on the 149?

Hi Jim & Alex, Yep, no mags or wipers. I wanted to go 14" wheels with the wide whites & I had the wheels in stock. The wipers need some new bushes so I have to sort that out. No weber on the 149.....yet  . Alex I got the trim rings from Armadale auto parts in WA. I tried a few places over this side & was told it would be at least a 2 week wait. Armadale had them on the shelf & 3 days later they were here. Next I might get a set of 14's reversed to give them a little bit of dish. Cheers & thanks, Dean. |

Looking real good, Deano, love the wheels/tyres/trims etc  (but aren't you just a little bit concerned about colliding with low-flying aeroplanes? Could it be a tad closer to the ground in an effort to avoid flightpaths? ) cheers, jack |

Dean, there is bloke here in Vic (Deer Park from memory) who makes bushes for the wiper arms (I assume they are the bushes you need). Have got his details around here somewhere, will post details here if that is a help.

Keep getting voice mail for this guy. Very frustrating  . Looks like I will be investing in Rainex shares. |

completely overlooked that, looked only at the trim rings per posts below
Dean, it does look about right I reckon but then I've always been afraid to over do it - a full side shot after you do the back will be good.

Lovells super lows with a coil cut.....just for good measure. Will probably go with 2 inch blocks in the back.
