Just the blanking of the plates no new design there Very Happy

It's actually going to be a work vehicle so it's of to get kitted out with a compressor and tool racking ,so I guess that's the first mod .. Very Happy

next mod need some advise please...
Right lads as you can see have had some weight added to the 110 has anyone got any info or ideas on the best up grade for the suspension as the back is now sitting lower than factory height and would like it back as it was, and also tighten up the handling a bit, have looked at the TERRAFIRMA heavy duty set up or maybe bilstein's? any info appreciated ... thanks Very Happy

if the compressor is going to be in and out, then air spring helpers would be my choice, however if it's staying in, then maybe look at a pair of HD rears.
