First V8 I have owned and picked it up Thursday 22/4/16.

Nitrate Silver Manual LS3

Options -

Sill plates
High spoiler
Mats

Loving it so far.

Tint booked in for this week going 20% all round, should make it match the black wheels better.

Got it from Sydney and got to drive back to Newcastle via putty rd so got a few shots along the way.

Absolutely loving Nitrate with the clear tail lights. Totally suits that colour and looks beautiful with black rims. Nice pick up there, enjoy!

Got it tinted today so much nicer!

I do miss having nitrate, so easy to maintain.

Going to lower it or do anything else?

Maybe later down the track. I was considering ordering some bilstein shocks and some springs before the car came but I actually love the ride it has on the stock FE3.

I'm sure it will look better lowered but just rides so well and feels so solid standard.

I think it will stay relatively stock for a while then maybe a Otr, tune and exhuast.

Currently the standard exhuast is good enough coming from a 2014 Ford Focus

Apart from the 4x4 height the FE3 is really nice, agree with you 100%
I like you're choice of going Bilsteins at some stage though, you won't regret that if you do it.

Yeah that's how it all starts haha

Standard exhaust sound pretty good, pull the relay for the bimodal if you want a little more noise.

Yea I was checking out the fuse box the other night but was a little dark to be pulling out fuses haha.

Will have a go this weekend.

Apart from that I think maybe Opticoat Pro to make it easier to clean and I will be happy.
