    get some 15 or 16 inch centre lines, convos or dragway indies would look ace.

    looks good but not sure about the vk bumpers.. should put the steelis back on it, wouldl ook unreal with the colour

    thanks guys.. the original bumpers were a bit messy so got rid of them.. i might be repainting it again though, if i can find something bigger i might stick with some polised steel bumpers just sorting out a new colour
