Thats getting sorted as soon as my Dads mate has some spare time (He does dent/paint repair) which is handy.

hotdogs If we were all like you, we'd be laughed at more than John Prescott....

22-06-03, 10:39 PM
yeah but theres a way to say things.
i just dont see why people have to go into other peoples threads and features and comment on what "needs" to be done to the car. its bloody annoying and i dont see what place they have to give people advice. especially when its clear from ross' previous cars that he definately knows what hes doing when it comes to modifying cars and doing it well.

Chris LR
22-06-03, 10:42 PM
The Important thing to remember is it's not what we want that counts,

He's done what he wants to do, all we need to comment on is how well he's done it, and what we have done ourselves.

Telling people what do to is just Muppetry

dave.gsi
22-06-03, 10:50 PM
he was hardly telling him what to do, just offering his opinion on what he thought would look good. wheres the harm in that cos at the end of the day he'll prob ignore it anyway.

techie
22-06-03, 10:50 PM
Erm thanks guys.

And yes I hadnt really paid a blind bit of notice to the comment anyhow.

Anyhow before this turned into a personal attack on Hotdog I believe my thread was about my interior.

Please feel free to comment on the subject matter :roll: :roll: :P

imo opinion, vauxhall made the perfect looking bodykit for the GTE, i prefer the subtle mods, like mesh grill, maybe a bit of smoothing of the bumpers, but the vynal and a few key badges have gotta stay on there. I find all these aftermarket kits just a tad bit to over the top, just my opinion, but moneys better spent on the engine than lairy bodykits. Whos gonna look the fool, at the lights when they got wings and bumpers so big it looks like it cud take off, and they get beaten by a relativly standard subtley modded car. :lol: The best i've seen has to that bog standard looking 1.2i witha 2l 16v in it, must be absolutley hilarious :P
