Well from that comment, I'd say you don't really approve of my new "Zoom Zoom" badge.
Oh well, I like it. And I put it on the back so people can see it.
It fall's into the category of, "It's my Car".
Still The thread is, " What have you done to your 5"
This what I've done, Sorry you don't approve,
Today I gave it a good wash! It's all shinny and Red again!

Well Doc, We may not all approve of the placement, but like you said, "It's your car", and you have to be happy with it, not us. So if you're happy with it mate, good for you. Enjoy your ZOOM-ZOOM badge.

I think you misinterpreted. Crapweasel literally has stickers on the underside of his boot lid:

My comment was firmly with tongue in cheek doc. It's your car, if you like it, great! Nobody can tell you if they do or don't approve, is none of their business.

Any pics of red & shiny?

No Unfortunately I have not gotten the Camera out!
So many Tourists out today, (I live bayside).
Maybe in the morning I can get it out on the street before the hordes arrive and get some photos.

Removed the SE Bilsteins' and fitted the KYB AGX shocks and the Espelir springs that I bought from Guss.
Now the SE doesn't look like a 4wd :beer:

absolutely.
Though it looks like tomorrow will be spent either:
a) rolling the guards
or
b) removing the 25mm wheel spacers.

I like the spacers as the racing hearts now fill the guards nicely.
But the scraping is a no-no. :cry:

Big day yesterday, fitted and adjusted my new bc coils and also fitted up the new low profile headlight kit. They still need to be adjusted correctly so that I can see at night.
