Cheers Guys... I'll keep you posted on the progress.

Scott i'll let you know when they'll all be out in Leam... The completion date for all three is 15th may (Redline Rumble)... Hopefully.

Ben.... The Fan is a PACE aftermarket one... (slimline obviously) I think Demon Tweeks do them. Oh and that XE'd Nova is Getting some nice QED Throttle Bodies first week of may :twisted: Running DTA 8)

I fancied something a bit different.... Wanted to try a kitted Nova rather than just Smooth and standard looking (If I don't like it i'll convert it back)

Cheers

They look good I think, legal?

Well this is a funny point with the law at the mo,as they started to clamp down on tintis so i guess if your caught with them then you will just find out. :lol:
they do look good but only on the right car,not for me though.

The Tints are the bee's knee's but be warned there not cheap! It cost him ?280 to have them done.... and that was on the cheap. All the windows were taken out so that the film went right to the edge. For a Professional job such as this it would usually be anything up to ?400 depending on the vehicle... :cry: Yes it can be done on the cheap (?100-?200) but you get what you pay for. They are a Chrome to smoke tint... NOT LEGAL because of the front side windows... If they weren't done then it would be Legal.
