Looks pretty good, although it doesn't suit the yellow headlights now, and that exhaust is ugly as sin lol

Bubba, as I was walking back from the cinema last night to the van, (above were your car was parked) I couldn't help going to have a look...

It looks awsome! The pictures dont do it justice!

Spray gun in a dirty warehouse so far from perfect.

So much hate against the backbox lol yet nothing about the polished handles ;)

Take the blue wheel caps off, yellow light tints, chrome handles and old rear number plate, then you'll be on to a winner.

to get the locks out you have to strip the doors bare....worst design ever.

door handles are polished...its one way of showing what i can do and getting me more business

and the splitter is back on

new plates will be bought soon
