Got the car back from the panel beater on Saturday, in the pics the front has been jacked up from where it was before - this was simply so I could get out of the panel beaters driveway.

These pics explain why - before raising it

Immediate plans - new exhaust going on Friday, the stock ones look hilarious inside that bumper! Tinted windows, attend to the stereo situation ( there is only so much all Christian radio I can take - the Japanese radio uses a frequency range that ends where our range begins, so I only get 3 local crappy stations, two in another language, one is golden oldies and the other is a local Christian station "Light FM"!) FMIC, EBC and ECU.

Medium term - bigger wheels with more aggressive offsets. I'm not going full on bippo styles - I want to have useable tyres on and don't want to hack up my guards, but I definitely need to fill the guards out a bit more now that this kit is on.

Airbags - was suggested before, I dismissed it then as I wanted the car to handle - but this is not a car that is designed to go quickly around corners and never will be. So airbags it is. Then I can keep the police at bay, keep the kit off speedbumps and still dump it when needed. Plus, more switches to play with are great

Chasing this up now - over priced from what I've seen so far. Am looking for a distributor as I think they'd be very popular over here - more and more Aristos hitting our roads every day

Your car looks really great. Love the Euroline SL's on there

nyARISTO

i think u raised it to high.

what offsets on those Sl's

nakedterro

haha, no ****! If I hadn't, I couldn't have got out of the panel shops driveway, it's not wide enough to get decent angle coming out and is on about a 30 degree angle to the street.

The offsets are around +40 - they're 8.5" front and 9.5" rear. I want to slap the rears on the front and get some 11"s for the back, but I think these rims have been discontinued.

Thanks guys

I'm SO happy with it - and the job the guys did of prepping, spraying and fitting was great. There is some more tweaking to be done, but I am planning on a full colour change, so that can be done then. Still undecided on colour

I used the factory JDM fog lights that came with the car

xscape

love it, looks great!

Admiration kit is nice. I just want the damn grill!

nakedterro

Yeah, I've gotta get a grill too. Too many other things planned though

Getting married in a week, when I get back from the honeymoon I'll be getting started

wow, nice looking Aristo. Does anyone happen to have a picture handy of another Aristo/GS300 running the admiration kit but sitting a bit higher?
