UPDATE:
Haven't had the best few days been crook as hell but went to work anyway....
Just about to finish my shift and a worker comes in and says "Hate to be the bearer of bad news but your cars been hit"
faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaark! here i start thinking some dick has gone full retard and ran into the side but it seemed a shopping trolley had been left at the top of the car park and had flown the whole way down the car park with some speed only to smack into the little honda
Investigated the damage and here it is:
As you can see the main damage is on the rear guard, it seems to have hit there first and twisted around into the door leaving a dent high on bosyline and a few other small dents and scratches Hopefully public liability will sort out my bill as i have already started getting quotes. Might get my guards rolled at the same time haha.
Anyway, so last night decided to head to a mates bday and on the way i go through town (should of known better). Cops are behind me as two cars in front have a lil drag making tonnes of noise but the cop still follows me... *facepalm. Pulled over, the cop asks "is this car registered with these plates?" i of course said yes and wondered wtf she was on about. She then lets me know she is defecting me for my plates not being compliant (well they are just reflective stickers on aluminium composite!) anyway i cheekily ask "how come? couldnt your computer read them?"... with a massive grin she said "no we couldnt, but i'm not meant to say that" (she was DTF for suuuure)
Can't believe she didnt get me for wheel track, but at least i know why i haven't received any speeding fines lately hahaha, better stick the stock one on the rear for now till new plates arrive :P
So to summarise:
Dents = Ghey
Defect = LOL

Update:
So today these arrive:
the ones on the right are the ones they sent me first off, and left are the ones i needed
Onto Fitment (56k/crap net connection beware)
Guard hating my new tyres
So rectified this:
End result:
Pretty happy with it, just need to make up a bracket to hold bumper so i can remove mounting tabs to go lower
Whilst we were there, decided to test new wheels on mates xr6 turbo:
18x9.5 +20 front and 18x10+15 rear

UPDATE:
So, with all the scraping that was going on in the rear i got the guards rolled...anyway it still scraped a bit on big bumps and hard cornering so decided to change damper settings as i was pretty sure they were set on softest.
Problem was, i don't have the tool to change the setting, but lucky my mate has greddy coilovers in his evo 8MR so we took one of his and tested it, and got them set a bit stiffer (went all the way to stiffest then rolled it back 8 clicks (probably still too soft but meh)
So if anyone knows where i can get just the tool to adjust, let me know
Random snaps today:
Role Reversal, old lady driving a dc2 type r vs young guy driving a jazz hahaha
wiiiiiiiide o.0

Update:
I would have lots of pics but my laptop won't read my SD Card anymore
I have installed the camber bolts and got a wheel alignment, car is going well
Local Audio shop had a big sale so i bought a fair chunk of alpine gear, got a double din Alpine DVD Player, and two sets of alpine dd linear speakers (splits front, coaxials rear doors).
Installed speakers with stock headunit and they crank! love them, now i just need to buy a double din fascia and im set
