Nice car
But u cant go sideways in that
3DR u can

 

Give it to me and ill go sideways in it

 

 

Very nice and original! Post some more pics!

 

Thats about the best thing said on this post.

Now stop taking about selling it and get it off the cars for sale section

 

I agree! - its too good to sell sort the little faults out and keep it - make sure you post all the pics so we can all see exactly what has been done to it!

 

Oh and one last thing - if you do keep it get smoked rear lights - they will look much better than clear ones!

 

try finding a set

 

exactly would love a set but finding them is a major prob

ive modded em now anyway now there clear and red look okish
