A set of front clear indicator lenses and side ones wouldn't look too bad either.

I won't be spraying anything red, if you look closely there's a red / black combo all around the car that i've purposley left there because I like it that way.. Side piece is black to match the piece under the front bar thats black that matches the rear grill under the rear bar thats black that matches the black on the centre panel of my taillights and black tints, and have black plates...you get my drift ?

Also with the clear indicator lenses, not a bad idea ! but I'll probably just get the full orange ones instead to match my side indicators.

that reminds me, if anyone on here is selling a pair of front indicators in orange that's in good condition then please let me know
Cheers

If your car was black then i would go for clear indicators, but for red i prefer the orange one as well

What i meant about the roundabouts (small ones) and parking is with a 8.5inch wheel up front taking turns around the roundabout at slow speeds will fell like theres no powersteering because the wheels are too wide
same with parking etc

The tyre size would probably have more of an affect on that. I doubt he'd feel too much difference over say the normal 215/35 front combo. People running super grippy tyres up front would probably have it worse.

Ok i see what you mean, I haven't noticed any difference to be honest. and yeah it will always feel like there's no power steering because my car doesn't have power steering.. maybe thats why I haven't noticed it ?

yeah tyre size is what it is although for a 8.5inch rim 225 is the smallest id go

i had 225 in the fronts and slow turns weren't the best

but yeah he has no powersteering lolllll

although a nice wheel alighnment will fix most problems

Yeah all 4 alligned and balanced .. nothing worse than driving without it done properly

power steering i believe turns off automatically over 60 km/h in the later model sw's ? it's only useful for parking in tight spots although i avoid these kinda places as much as possible ...if you ever see my car it will be the one parked on its own in a corner or on the end of a line for this very reason.. getting out easier

Oh ur lucky my mudflaps rubbed paint off, but then again ur paint is HEAPS better than mine, bloody Toyota red.

loll i know how you feel about red cars.... big pain in the a$$!!

mine just needed a quick polish where the mud guards were because the dirt that sat in between them all these years didn't seem to want to come out that easily.
