Oh no. Bonnet raisers, black wheels and RS badge on the rocker cover.
It looked great with the white wheels and the standard look but now I dont like it - sorry dude.

Whats with the 1st reply some guy calling you a dildo for no apparent reason?!

not sure mate....dan saw to him tho (cheeRS again fella)

but i think ur right about the rs badge on the rocker cover

White wheels are def no no for me, ya know what that say about once u've gone black

bonnet raisers serve purposr (but will be commin off i think) as was running standard every thing with 20psi....ouch!!!! getting sorted tho

its between Engine Advantages or P.T.S to get her bosting right

but considering the new..er turbo has standar atchurator i thibk that will rund stanard boost untill i get it to either of them

any suggestions on whos better....without causing argument
