Lynsey
29-08-06, 11:38 PM
silk violet will look smart... only have white if you can keep it clean!!! thats why im keepin the grey vinyl haha

db_1.2
29-08-06, 11:40 PM
Lol good idea!!! i think ill just have a white blow over, cheaper, easier, wont have to change logbook, plus atleast i know it looks alright white, i might not be happy with silk violet!

Lynsey
29-08-06, 11:43 PM

GSi bumpers look great when kept stansard grey on an SR, as it really sets the two tone off with the more aggresive lip.

as for splitters - dont bother - theyre gay.

Lynsey

loggyboy
30-08-06, 11:11 AM

Oginally i had large light stripes (as on the right), but they were too obvious, now i have thin slightly darker ones.
