Yeah personally I'm not a fan of the induction either Ty, it's piped down through the hole where the factory intercooler piping goes and the pod filter sits in the front bumper where the side lights (that come on with the indicators) used to be. I got quite a noticable increase in performance when I scrapped my BFI and plumbed my pod filter right down to the front bumper, you Aussies wouldn't be able to do that though would you?
James, the rims cost me $1395 with tyres, I got a great deal from a mag and tyre shop in Lower Hutt. I don't know what the offset is but they didn't need spacers and they JUST fit under the gaurds with about 3mm clearance

Mike tells it as he see's it, and is wise beyond his years.................He only speaks as he does, because he is VERY passionate about originality, and/or sympathetic modifications.
In summary Mike has a whinge about 99% of Soarer modifications, so don't take it personally! I think Mike is the guy kind of guy who would rather clean his engine bay with a toothbrush than do a few mods and take it to a track day

Cheers guys, sorry for the cello-phone quality pic... They do look great though (I may or may not have taken into account Mikes bitching about my headlights), I cleaned them when I first got the car but in the process of modification (like many other things) they have been neglected...
And I honestly thought I was the only one that loved my wheels as much as I do, it's good to hear all you lot agree with me
