Maiki's EK - New Wheels / Grille

Post by Mai Ki-Ki »

New lenses in the rear to replace cracked ones. (indicators live in the reverse light location). New number plate holder bolts (with LED lights) to replace the old brackets that looked ugly. Also makes plate sit neatly on bumper...

New stainless steel tubing grille to replace the chrome one that kept rusting...

New 14" HT Holden 'chromies' with thin whites and bullet centres...bullet nut covers in the mail...

Interior 99% done, just new shifter to make and headlining to paint...

Those wheels look sweet as Maiki

I personally think if you removed your front over riders it would make it look smoother and compliment your grille.
But of course that's just my humble opinion. It's your car and it looks neat

I did have the over-riders off a few years back and seemed to make the front end look too simple, but might try it again....they are rusting out in the bottom section, so time to get them replaced or find some thinner US ones..... hmm

I got AJAX wheels here in Melbourne make them up for me. 14" HT hoops with the HT holden centres set to EK offset... All went together nicely. :)

Hey Maiki

that looks sweet.

Are the bullet centre caps the ones from NZ?
