Hi everybody! I've never had a proper chance to post on this forum but I thought I may as well 
I bought my DC5 Type R last year in August. The car was the only one I could find in Perth in Red at the time (My favourite colour for cars) and when I first saw it I fell in love. The owner took me for a spin and it was exhilarating to say the least! So much better then my old Ford Focus! After a week or so of thinking and further research on the car I decided to buy it and haven't regretted it since!
When purchased I changed the wheels to Bronze Rota Torques straight away as the old wheels were ugly and bent/scratched. I also removed the Eibach springs in the car and changed them back to factory, This is because the Pro-kit springs in the car were used with the OEM struts and shocks giving a very harsh ride. Apart from that the car has been a blast to drive! Here's some pics attached! I found months after the front bumper on the car is from a base model however. The car was not in an accident and my mechanic managed to confirm this to as the chassis is straight and without issues. Maybe the old bumper cracked or something? I'm getting it replaced anyway so it isn't too much of a drama.
