The rocco is still down the side of my house. As for good money in architecture its a bit of an odd one. If you are top dawg like my GF's mum and dad are you could end up taking home 100k+ a year but thats more for been a good buisiness man/woman. The actuall architectrural work pays shit for the amound of effort put in. You do more years at uni than a doctor and then when you come out you will be on 20k which climbs over the years to around 50k if you end up been head designer in a practice. So by the time you are thinking about retiring you are on the money that you thought you would be on from the start

No competition here. I'm way better than kai!

In all honesty kai works for me. He does our polishing.

By the way if you see my g60 wheels today please don't take those as a measure of my work! They were done in about 20 mins!

with al due respect i dint thnk your wheels looked too bad today and i've seen people spend more time making a worse job so its all good. just need the stance sorting but thats just my veiw looks good tho

Im a Chemical Engineering student, but on placement this year getting a cheeky 17K. Thats why Im trying to get my car all finished before I'm a poor student again!

nice one ash!

17k can do a lot!

17k will go far and enuf to complete big plans fr your rocco if u have any

Well it has so far gone on buying it, 3 sets of alloys, stainless exhaust, coilovers, insuring, taxing, setting up k-jet and all the other bits.

Plus rent and trips for me and the Mrs to Milan and Amsterdam.

Brake conversion and wing spray are next on the list.

Then I may think about more power somehow.

Oh and saving to insure it/put it through an MOT/tax it again.

i saw it yesterday at the meet and its sbeautifull car but i hear you say coilovers are fitted i think it needs winding down abit and get them ats cups closer to the arch and i know lemski has probly said somehing simmilar aswell being the shassis scraping leprocaun he is

Haha yeah I know, but its rubbing already. Gonna get something to treat the arches and then take the arch covers off, maybe then think about rolling them. Yeah Liam keeps pestering me to roll them!

Also my tyres are too fat

liam showed me your arch covers yesterday and they have quite a lip on them but some slightly stretched tired with a touch of camber will stop them hitting your arch

Ash needs to get his arches rolled asap. Or he will snag his tire and get seriously hurt in a scirocco shaped fireball

Yeah just not got the cash for that at the minute so it will have to just be high for now.

Wanna get it about as low as that red one there yesterday - that looked amazing!

yer was sorted in my eyes stance was spot on and is a verry good example of a rocco i was very much jelouse indeed

Ash yours is nice too
