A bit late...

Post by Greggles »

Heylo boys and girls,

I should have introduced myself yonks ago.

My name is Greg and I'm an FTO addict. It's my first car (well technically second), and I've got plans for it and imagination - however I'm lacking a heavily loaded pockets so it's a bit-by-bit process.

At the moment the only thing I've done is put in a cranking stereo, but hopefully within the next year she'll be up to scratch and I'll be sexing it up in some magazine somewhere in the world or something.

      Yep they're 17"!

      I dont mind them but I want to change the rims, before was thinking of getting DTMs but then I started thinking.. need some jap rims for a jap car rite? :D
      I looked at some nice HP jap rims but they're 1850 without the tyres, be a while before I get them!
