For goodness rake

So whats the story with tiki's van -?- Well had a set of 14" M&S white walls on another set of rims (see tonmawrtiki blog) and felt like the rear arches needed filling so on went the backs. But the front was to low so rather than take the rears off I thought throw a pair on the front.

Well kind of looked ok was a tad low so I lifted the front up to be slightly lower then the back, but, but the tyres are just to big and rubbing?? So back to neath's premier tyre emporium "town tyers" for two new fronts and the cheapest coffee in neath 20p bargin.

Use the force Luke ...


If your finding the old X-wing fighter a little cumbersome for everyday use then surely the logical thing to do would be to use an old honda Del sol ..... ummm ..... maybe not !

A pair of Miata's




It doesn't take much for Mazda's popular Mx5/Eunos/Miata to lose the hairdressers car image , a well chosen set of rims and a damn good slamming usually do the trick .




Camo











Camo style is alway's a good look and there are plenty of variations on the theme from traditional khaki army colours to the more streetwise urban camo ( Ade's infamous cow van for example ) . Here's a few J tin examples icluding a slammed Scion coupe with Panda themed camo bonnet !
