    Lol Stealthy i took it off to clean but not sure whether to put it back on or not same as the bonnet protector. They tidy it up a bit but ive been trying for the mongrel look and cant make up me mind if they are a bit gay. What do you guys think.

    Immaculate! Absolutely love what you've done here, credit to you. But I have to agree with STEALTHY about the tail lights, IMO they really don't suit the car.

    Thanks for the comments guys. I actually agree with you. Im not that happy with them since i bought them. The prob is they cost me money so they will stay for while. Mebbe some light tint over them to darken them up. I also think the rear wing being off makes them more noticable. It gets polished up this weekend and put back on so i'll do a comparison then. Dannyboy you can sex my interior i know i so wanna lol.

    How well does the CAI work? Is there much difference from standard otr cai? And what sort of flex tubing is that? Cheers.

    spd-dmn i havnt dynoed it for a comparison. on road to tell the truth id say the hsv cai i had on it might just be a tiny bit better.....but the whine of the gilmer and the constant intake drawing air make up for it lol....till i get the blower eventually then it will all change anyway...the piping is made from rubber...a lot dearer but will last potentially a long long time without perishing like the plastic ones.......thanks NickVR the interior is worth the 5G pricetag just to have the leather smell lol
