So the FTO has won you over then. For some reason thought you were keeping both.

    This is e 4th time I typed this in, my ipad keeps crashing LOL.

    I was going to keep both, but the FTO is much nicer and easier to live with, it also turns more heads :) and looks much cleaner.
    I also can't afford to live out of home and pay two lots of insurance and regos. :)


    My mate GeeGee (on this forum) has a Black FTO and one day we were out and about looking for wreckers and we ended up finding one that had this wrecked Silver FTO, and n that day I fell in love with it, even though it was sitting on rotors, and was semi stripped out I just never realised how nice they were till then. I knew they were nice but something about that silver one triggered something! From there I searched carsales and gumtree for weeks and the only manual in QLD that wasn't over $9000 was this Silver one in Gladstone QLD. and flew up took it for a test drive, bought it. Drove it all the way to Brisbane and treasured it from then on.

    Hope you's liked my story bit random but yeah. Car means something to me :D



    P.S Sold the Prelude today, gone forever. I think as a parts car :/

    :( goodbye prelude!

    So it has been awhile, i moved out of home and in with my mate. We now have two FTO's within a few meters :D

    So during the 3-4 weeks we have no internet, I managed to do a few things to my FTO, One being shattering both my centre surrounds. I've painted my Rear wing, put a new exhaust on and i got a new clutch. after the springs fell out of it trying to reverse park at my work. :cry:

    *My exhaust was rusty as hell, I've now got a 2.5" Cat back using a Hurricane Muffler, Mandrel bent, and i think its mild steel. The note is just about where i wanted it, its fairly quiet all round. Going back to get custom headers and downpipe eventually.

    So here are a few more pics to my post. :D

    Also, I have a question, and fucks me if i've already asked it, i forgot.

    With the FTO foglights, when i press my button my parkers and dash lights come on, but the foglight itself does not. I've only tried replacing the bulbs so far but is there anything i can do to fix em? Be great to have when its pissing down rain wack some 3000k yellows in em.

    Your switch is burnt out. You need a new switch and you need to install a relay to prevent it happening again.

    Little update. This arrived today, had to pick it up from the P/O As they are lazy and don't ring door buzzers.

    It'll be wrapped up in vinyl, Picked a 4D Glossy C/F wrap. still thinking on how i should do it, whether to wrap it all or just the middle piece and paint the outer edges, or do the whole thing

    Haha :lol: , i was at work all day. But my house mate said hes been home all day and didn't hear anything. It's a small unit, and a loud buzzer, if you couldnt hear it in the house then you'd probably wanna get your ears checked :lol:

    Wrapped Boot and Part of my VR Wing in 4D Gloss Carbon Fibre, that sh*t is harder than you'd think to apply. few wrinkles on the lip of the boot which was a join piece, so i will redo it later on. Other wise I'm pretty happy with it, i grow to like it every time i see it and it goes well with my number plate and rims :P

    other option is to remove it and just leave boot normal + spoiler how it is now. I really do enjoy the VR wing over Stock and Veil-side one.

    I also think its time to get rid of that blue sticker as it stands out like dogs balls now.

    Few other pics, some are sh*tty thanks to my not being able to auto focus auto focus on my phone...

    Never taking that boot lid off again.
