Default Wheels finally fitted, SO HAPPY!

Arches rolled and flared over an inch, £40 for some xenon projectors, and now it's FINALLY starting to look like something.

Down a touch more at the front with some super super stiff 450lbs/in springs and a bit of fiddling with the camber, and it will be spot on.

Could not be happier right now!!!

Saw this on facebook and ****** love it, ive seen 75 decked before but none look as nice as this. Always been a fan of the E38 scraping the speedbumps but this just looks sweet

I have to say, it does look rather sweet. Good thing you lowered it, if it was higher off the ground it wouldn't have looked so good. But I can see why others might not agree on the looks. It is very different than what you would expect a luxurious 75 to look like.

Got some more pictures?
