Satin black, with metal flake roof and some rather tasty stripping on the boot.



Did have a load more on the old PC, but it died so don't have them any more.

Anyone else got any photo's??

Talking of lowering, how could i drop the front of the husky a bit? I dont want to slam it, just drop an inch or so to give it a little rake. Only thing is i dont wanna do anything i cant put back standard. Ive considered spring clamps but not heard good things about them. Any ideas or opinions?

Cut the springs, but you'll have to get a set of stock ones to bring it back up. That's what his nibs did to the Rapier.

I have to admit that worries me a bit cos springs are normally tapered where they seat. Spose i could recreate that with a bit of careful grinding.
