hi guys n gals here we have my 02 st170 for sale.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...STRK:MESELX:IT
let me know what you think
i am open to sensible offers from members of this site or ffoc, not willing to let the car go to any ole scallywag as its to good to get hammered.

 

if it were me, I'd remove the stripes and put the standard rear lights in and sell the others ones in a seperate auction.

 

the stripes are painted on in candy silver so kinda big job to have them removed now, thanks tho

 

LOL if they got the cash its a bit of metal at the end of the day mate and if its the difference between selling it and not i think you would sell it to a scumbag.

 

Yeah i know what you're saying but .............. we both loved this car would hate to see it driven away in a cloud of clutch debris a rubber smoke
and to be perfectly honest i don't think i would just sell to anyone thats just me being stubborn i guess ( or stupid take your pick lol)

 

Cars up for Ł2500, if anyones interested??

 

I'd consider wrapping the roof in carbon-look film and swapping the bonnet for an unstriped one. The look at the moment isn't necessarily bad but it's very individual.

Doing the above, swapping alloys back to standard and dropping it 35-50mm (sell new wheels Ł500-ish+, use existing originals or buy for Ł250 ish, use remainder to buy springs and a compressor) would give it much more generic 'racer' look that would appeal to far more people, and particularly appeal more to the people you say you want to sell it to.

Might cost you Ł100 or so to do but you'd be far more likely to get a sale.

Don't mean this as a diss, just advice from someone who's been there (albeit not with painted on stripes!)

i would prefer to buy with standard wheels i could live with the strips but if i got bored carbon it
