FRUSTRATION! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr......

Post by macky_6 » Thu May 24, 2012 4:36 pm

Just spent the best part of 15 hours detailing my Type-S :mrgreen:

And i have to say, it is looking phenominal :twisted:

Apart from wheels :evil:

Which make me want to kill myself and anybody who sets their eyes upon them :bat:

Want to take loads of pics & post them up & chatter away about them and show off all the work/bits i have done/changed, but those bloody wheels!

Still waiting (7 weeks now!!!!) for my lug nuts to arrive from Tegiwa. Pricks :-x

I may also have sunstroke :?

They are D1 style :twisted:

They said that they could take 3-4 weeks as they were on back order :x

I want to Nitin but the new wheels are necessary to complete the overall look, which has shifted dramatically :twisted:

Well, when i ordered them i knew i wasn't going to fit the wheels for a couple of weeks anyway (as i get paid monthly) so i went for the peace of mind of buying from an established and reputable(?) company :?

Any wonder some of these companies are losing cash to E-bay etc?

Anyway, here is a teaser pic that shows off my good work with the shining but i was careful to disguise certain mods :twisted:

Note: hopefully fixing the front bumper sag over the weekend along with another front end tweak ;)

Mine has it on the front drivers side a bit, I presume its just a bent support or bracket?
