Xj's Ride

Post by xj265 »

Purchased the FTO off a member on here 'cHONGA' back in 2009 ish, I think :lol: Anyways car was pretty well looked after although it did have an altercation with a curb (the photo is still on this forum somewhere) hence why the left side of the bonnet/ drivers headlight never lines up :evil: It had and still does have fairly damaged RJR racing wheels :lol: (18"), topmix sideskirts and leatherette seat covers but not in the best condition

Haven't done much to it up until recently:

I purchased a DC rear from Talon Body kits. It fits great and is much cheaper that SSV.

Bought a Carbon fiber boot off a member here.

Then I managed to get hold of some project F rear lights, however they did need work doing to it and also a damaged T's Factory (Custom) bar.

Bought new center and upper consoles, at last! :roll:

Fixed the front bumper, tail lights and finally got it all fitted :D

Also got some rain guards with all the clips from the UK for $75 delivered and only took a few days for them to arrive :cheers:

I would love to get some new rims and maybe some RPW extractors but too much $$$$ atm, anyways here she is:
