They look great CJ! (with the exception of one rather unattractive half closed eyes one of me :shock: ) Well done for organising the event! Can't wait until the next one :smt026

Good pics, going mad I left my own camera at home so I've none to contribute... not that they'd be any better of course!!

May I be the first to point out that you left out Mark & Iano C out of the attendees list! :wink:

I'm really impressed JD, I didn't know you were a photoshop head, handy to know :) I've put your pic on the front of the Dublin meet page, it would be a shame to hide it away in an album.

Thanks Shane,

Yeah - I changed to KYB Dampers and Apex springs - sorted all remaining bushes as well - now corners like on rails - really flat with heaps of grip. Not as low as I thought it would be either which suits me fine - I can still just about get over speed bumps. And it does have a better stance as well though my tyres are now rubbing the arches when you lock the steering wheel despite the low offset wheels and riveted wheel arches.

It looks pretty cool Helen, out of interest, have the cops ever questioned it?
Its about as custom an FTO plate as you're gonna get in this country.

Danny, meant to say it earlier - that is one very sweet colour on your FTO - it looks really mint :)

If you ask me it looks just the right ride height - it looks purposeful and aggressive without that (sometimes rediculous) "I'm scraping my sump cause my car is so low" look ;)

NOI to anyone with a seriously lowered car (just not to my taste).....

Did you request that plate when you registered or was it just a fluke that you got a number ending 770 ?

hi, it was a pure fluke that it ended in 770 and a very good observation by tony while sitting at a romantic meal and him looking out the window at the car. ROMANTIC!!!!
No have not got pulled by the cops about it either.

Daz, send 'em on in 4 or 5 emails, it will make it easier to retrieve them.
