And to contribute. sweet ride Craig. it's come a long way from the first time I saw it.

Lol .. Yeah, I left out the interior stuff... No one really notices those slight differences... But I do prefer the leather-ish door inserts to the material ... Just seems more durable...

And thanks for the comms.. I need to give the car a good detail/cut and polish ... But yeah, haven't really had the time...

Hey champ....

Bonnet is around $1,100 off memory... I got it off UAS, who actually buy them off Car Mate. It is one of the few products the sell, that actually fits...

Facelift FTO, quite simply, is a standard FTO, but it has the GPvR front bar fitted to it... Instead of the older style front bar where it has the 2 foggies, and parker lights in the one unit...

ahh bonnet looks sweet : )
p.s your picture thing is so distracting LOL

New seats are in:



Colour suits my car more than the Mrs anyway..

Quick shot with polished headlights as well..

Seats look mad

Thanx. They are a little worn but you cant really tell in the pics. .

The colour really suits my car, and I am wondering if I do them in black, or re-do in red..

Black with red inserts. Thats what I did with mine and they came out really well. All red is a little much and given everything in the interior is black already, it would be too bland if you went that way.

Hmmm .. Not a bad idea on that one...

I am actually deciding then if I do them similar to my Evo ones.. It has like the Falcon Blue mesh ...

I would change the gear boot and seats at the same time (scrap makes the boot cover) and the red stitching is faded on the steering wheel ... So it would not look out of place...

Red seats in a black car always look good

Hey mate, any idea what wheels you had on the car when you first bought it? (The wheels in the first lot of pics)

Nah no idea... They are pretty heavy though ...

They are sitting in the garage at the moment... Not sure if I want to paint them either flat black or a charcoal grey and put on the Mrs Car...

I can check the brand for you if you like...

The seats look good in that car.
Fits perfectly.

They fit in better in my car as well....

In the wife's car, there was a bracket used for the driver seat, and bolt at the front of the seat (closest to the center console) was a PIA to get to as it interfered with the bar to slide the seat back.

No bracket and no such problem in my car... So there must be a slight variant in mounting points... Unless the rear brackets were put in unnecessarily and caused the issue...

Would be great if you could get me the brand/model please will look awesome on my black car. What size are they?
