Wait, we're still talking about driveways right? :P

I have pirhana bars for my front 2 footwells & in my front grille (I don't recommend pirhana for front grille) if anyone wants to check 'em out on cruise sunday.. theyre bulky though

my house is too small, can barely hold 2 cars :(


What's wrong with them in the front grille?

The viewing angle is too small and the radiator is too close to where you mount them so the light doesn't spread it'll aim in one spot and look bad.

CFFL tube is probably best for front grille, but I prefer LED :P

I ordered the "Bro Code" book off EBay :D Those of you who watch How I Met Your Mother will understand my excitement!

Over 150 codes that bros must follow and live by are contained in the book. I'm going to be the most ultimately universally awesome bro/wingman ever.

Twas written by Barney Stinson himself. Or as I like to call him, Lorenzo von Matterhorn.

*bows*

EDIT:

For whoever may care:
My fuel economy from a full tank just before my flash tune: 8.89L/100km.
My economy on a full tank after the flash tune: 9.65L/100km.

Ie its WORSE. But close enough that I would say its because of reasons other than the tune. I was starting to go through an economical driving phase before but the tune changed my mind, and half the 'before' tank was used on 110kmph highways, whereas the 'after' tank has been much more stop+start driving.

I remind you these a calculated myself not by the computer.

My judgement: Its 'fairly' or maybe 'much' BETTER that it used to be. Its hard to tell.

Aaron, you must show me that book when you get it :D

My fuel economy has always sucked, but then again with my driving style it will rarely be below 10L/100km :\


We have to okay to organise a group buy from oznium.com.

I'm outta ink :P

I'm printing my cruise maps at officeworks haha

We could also make a new thread and post up what we want there, then we can calculate the cost of shipping and then collect money at the next cruise

I might make a new thread when I get home and sticky it.

I'm not...
If you shopped around I think you could find cheaper underbody kits here in Oz, idk about quality.

Note: If someone orders something big that means the postage will go up a lot, which is unfair on the people just getting small things. We should distribute paying for postage based on how big/how many things each of us are getting (ie we guess who should pay how much of it :P).
Though only if there's an obvious imbalance.

think its worth contacting these guys and asking for a discount since we ordering a decent amount of stock. They might give us free shipping.

just a suggestion,

Depending on how much we want they may offer a discount, I highly doubt it though as they already offer discounts for buying in bulk, unless we're buying into the hundreds I don't think they're going to do any special deals for us :(

FYI guys

Supercheap auto are selling 4pc undercar neon kits for $A75.. but these are neon (cathode) not LED so quality is....well...supercheap auto quality... :P

blue/pink at gosnells store which was the only one I checked.

snorkel screws are a pain, I don't even have them in anymore they annoy me so much... air intake is not held onto anything :P pretty sturdy though

i've bought LED's and pirhana bars and other little bits and bobs.. nothing major, probably spent $200-$250 in total at ozium

some things are cheaper on ebay, but ozium are much better quality :)
