Looks nice. The centre console being silver was what i had planned to do this year so good to see what it actually looks like ;) Personally I think the dials need to be changed, but that's just me.

and maybe a gold in-fill decal for the recessed FTO on the rear end to top off the kit ;)

you should keep the GT wing and the rest of the kit stock then go crazy with a bonnet like this

lol that'd be interesting

but overall it looks nice -- black ftos rock the hardest ;)

i like the gold, but maybe just change the style, look for a more "complex" pattern, that one is very plain. dunno the best way to describe it but if i see what i mean i'll let u know ;)

I agree with noccers, keep everything stock as it is and get some new rims. Good job though! clean and fun :lol:

looks really clean. i love what u've done with the tip lever. is that a momo lever? change the rims, get a carbon fibre bonnet, i find the ab style a bit OTT have u seen the one with the evo vents? and maybe get rid of the gt wing and get a version r wing on instead.

Love your car wallaby! Black is the best!

I love gold rims too on a black FTO but that colour on yours seems the wrong gold to me. I've actually been looking for the perfect gold for my black FTO. If I don't find the right ones I'll have to settle for a nice default alloy rim. Here are some gold rims I might be interested in though...

Other than that I wouldn't change anything else except maybe the front end. I much prefer the VersionR type.

yeah im considering selling it cause i wanna go overseas, just testing out if anyone wants it got it also on boost but the swaps ive been offered im not keen on. Im after an r33 or a 300zx if anyone would like 2 swap. if i dont sell it im gonna keep it a while longer. definately get some new mags would really like a kit on it but yeah dont have much money at the moment having two cars :P cheers for ya feed back guys

yeah the number plates are blacked out in ebay as thats not the rego no. the fella i bought it off took them so i blackened the ones on ebay i got normal plates that dont look as good, and i couldnt be bothered blackening the pic again.
