Fair play to you for admitting that kit needs to come off ASAP

The rear lights are afterburners, often found in that well known Auction website

O M G

So when do you plan on changing the centre bonnet vent, front bumper, rear bumper, wheels, rear lights and gauges???

It worries me that the previous owners choose to build it like that.

Please change it back!!!!!!

Classic can have different lights like crystal or smoked, and different front and rear spoilers. But the rest needs to remain standard, other wise it looks Cak.

Not fear my friend, the Gauge got literally yanked off yesterday, I will be fitting my Defi gauges there today, also got a set of stock rear lights so ill be taking care of that too, as for the boot spoiler, front and rear bumper they will up for grabs on Fleabay very soon, need to source replacement one first tho..

same for the wheels if any body is interested in any of the above items which are coming off the car please feel free to contact me.

Cheers peeps
