I'm always drawn to orange when I see them but it wouldn't work with mine. Would have gone with my previous car, a black FTO with orange interior and an orange stripe on the alloys.

At the end of the day we all know that you will end up doing something better with it so why bother wasting money in the interim. For example, those stupid brake covers that everyone told you not to buy, which eventually got ditched for some better real brakes.

You say budget is limited and then spend unnecessarily. I don't get it...

I'd rather have real smaller boobs than bigger fake ones but each to their own.
I say this through enormously gritted teeth but....... Steve84N, you were right :oops: :P

I'll go get my coat :lol:

I spoke to him last week about it but decided not to go with the twin conversion. DLV has just sorted me out with something else though.

It’s going to look good! I wonder how it will sound in comparison to mine? Will have to meet up at some point and have a 2.0 off :fuelfire:
