Doesn't GSi rep mean it has to look like a GSi? lol

Still, smart. Colour is rather eye catching :D


[edit] I think someone in pic 1 is trying to nick it lol

Not a GSi front bumper BTW.

Its, erm....lol as RJ said eye catching! Not keen on slabs TBH, maybe take some side on shots and ask for a few PS wheel idea pics?

i am debating wether to get a set of speedlines or softstars instead of the slabs,

That'll stand out from the crowd:)

I've got some lovely white OZ Superturismo's which would suit it ha ha

I like that! A mental colour and so what if it doesnt have a GSi bumper (true though you cant call it a SGi rep without one).

Cav slabs FTW!

It does look fantastic. Personally I'd fit the GSi Window Surrounds and forget the GSi Front Bumper. As for the wheels, the Slabs are spot on, but try and put a little air into the drivers rear and it'll help it in the corners.

Also a cam that isn't seized may help too. :thumb: lol lol

im liking that, if i was you i would spray the skirts black to help break the colour up a bit. and also get some white wheels on there.

looks good though :) give it a clean and some better pics!

Looks quite smart. I've done a crap photoshop of what I'd do though (I'm really quite bored)...

I'd get a GSi front bumper for it too!

Good Photoshop Matt. That looks miles better. :thumb:

I think it suits the orange with the white against it, very nice :cool:

the white alloys look ok but look abit too over the top for me maybe some white softstars or speedlines, and the white line around the front doesnt do it for me

Grey Skirts and Bumpers FTW!!

the colour doesnt look as bright as it does in person, its a dull bright if you get what i mean, its hard to explain
