Yea it's two pack mate. My best mate is a spray painter, it's spies and hecker paint. Colour coded to exterior of car. Also used special plastic undercoat. Just made the interior look a little newer and less boring!

Got some red walls done and got the ss grills for front bar. Black with red pin stripe, what do u think!

Love the red trim on the wheels and grill, it offsets the blue really well. Also, nice engine/car combo!

It's an eBay brand that a lot of guys use, it's an engineering joint in Melbourne I'll look it up, very pro kit. I will get them to fit pulley to power steering pump as it's a head #### as involves heating it up etc to remove old pulley etc was about 400 and does every belt including air con etc!
