Hi, well it was my 25th birthday yesterday and I have had a busy weekend giving my 172 a bit of a facelift and freshen up. First came some Apex -40mm springs which were a present of the misses. Aswell as that I decided to have a go at refurbing and painting my wheels as I always thought that there was too much silver going on and wanted a change...so I went for Ford Graphite Grey.
They have turned out pretty good to be fair im well chuffed but I thought I would put it to the hardest of critics and post them up here lol. The 40mm drop seems to be just right and of course it goes without saying the handling is much improved.
So overall im chuffed to bits, so here's a few pics. I will take some better ones when I get chance.
Before centre caps were done:
