    well bobtail is painted and fitted. really loving it. nothing but good comments on it.



    and my cooler is fitted too. its a 450x300, was easy as to fit, had to remove my a/c fan and move the condensor a bit, but besides1 that there is plenty of room. im glad i didnt go any bigger though. looks sweet as i reckon. i'm really happy with it. im thinking of getting some black mesh to hide it a bit, but i want a mesh that you can still see through. now all i need is to find a place that will do my piping.



    car is riding on stockies all round for the time being while i suss out some new tyres for the 20's. gave them a quick lick of paint too to neaten them up.

    Nice man looks like a easy fit do you think the next size up which is 600 mm instead of your 450 would be easy to fit?

    well, the space is there, but you need to relocate the A/C condensor, i just had to move mine over a little bit, so that could be a bit more work. plenty of people have done it though.
