    sorry i don't have it either it was a couple of windows installs ago.
    just google graffiti fonts, there should be heaps

    actually it could have been in a pack from a torrent site.
    there are free font packs around (most u gotta pay for tho)

    nah just gonna leave it as is, maybe respray one day and freshen up etc. (but the power bug could bite hehe, it usually does)
    the bar is a bit broken so may get it fixed or replace with stock bar for a while, will see what happens. going in for roady on monday, gotta fix the drivers seat (frame that bolts to rails has snapped needs welding).

    thanks for comments guys i really love it, and am going to enjoy using it everyday for even the most mundane of journeys

    I predict that this time next year it will be most of the way towards a higher powered cruiser. Go the wagon.

    Update: Nearly roadie, today i got 2 new front shocks, 2 new rear tyres (hehe), and new front discs and pads with wheel alignment. ($825 so far)

    To do: Clip drivers door trim on properly, clamp down battery, fix drivers seat (snapped rail), replace mufflers. Then its gonna be passed w00t

    got it for $1850 had 1 week reg left so i did as much as i could in that time,
    237,xxx km's. going wreckers today for any old drivers seat for rwc lol.
    one of the mufflers has a crack and other the baffle fell out, so to the exhaust joint on monday even if i spend a total of $3500 on car and rwc stuff still a bargain imho.

    Gonna degrease whole engine bay tomorrow, which would be the most important parts that need to stay dry? (will break out the shopping bags and cable tie's w00t)
