This is as of 20/11/10 - Im not really liking the colour of the CS9, bit too grey... I wanted more gunmetal... Will get my bro to redo them now that he can paint with an airgun properly - Now what colour do I get? I dont want black

Nice man definitely chuck up some pics!

I feel compelled to warn you of the footwell lighting. I tried to do it in the outback and up until a point, was successful.

I layed it all out to start with to make sure it worked which it did it did but when i installed it, it stopped working but not just that, my whole interior lights have failed! And also my keyhole light thing never turns off. Dunno what the problem is...

checked ur fuses?

[Shiv]

Loving the rims mate! Very impressive.

Just reading through your spec-list...few things I didn't even know you had! Nice work

[Hypnotic]

keep them the same colour for now, they look wicked, the silver look grew on me and I just find the CS9's to be a sexy looking wheel

[aekOne]

looks very nice chris!

[Morgan]

Yea mate all fuses are ok. Something is wrong internally.
Heard the same thing happened to a guy on rexnet... with no fix

[SAV84C]

Heres some more pics as off today... Really shows how grey the wheels are...

Difference in size with a generic short shifter and a Prova Short Shifter

[Dylan]

Chris mate, this is probably one gen3 that I would vote a turbo conversion for ! Got everything else bar the power now , looks great !

[bobbyjimmy]

That Prova shifter looks the same as the COBB/Mode ones.

Yeh they are very similar! One problem with it though it dont bloody fit!!! The ball is too big and going by the part no its the correct one for my car... It came direct from Japan when my brother was over there earlier this yr...

[Alex]

Why not just bolt in the correct shifter assembly to suit the shifter? Linkages will all be the same shit!

(why do I feel like I'm repeating myself?)

Paint your wheels. Rollin' on wheels in primer (Mt Druitt Metallic) isn't cricket.

Take it to a machine shop and get them to machine it down to the same size as that crapper one below it.
You know that you can undo the cap bolts (allen key heads) and slide the lower part out?
