Bag o'****e

You're just a sheep following all those others

You want to be retro like me mate and keep the exterior standard

Ooops better rephrase that, the spoiler looks good, just doesn't go with that car

How's your new strings?

Lovely car
I see your car is on a Y plate, is that personalised or is that the last pre bug eye registration?, I always thought it was X.

Burnside, she was the last of the "Cool" scoobs (See how the MY01-02 owners hate me now )

Rebecca, Spot of advertising never hurt anyone I reckon that if someone does a good job, then tell others

I'm sure TSL are aware that if they made a pigs ear of summat on my car, i'd be the first to let you all know. Don't reckon it'll ever happen though

Still beaming and proud, even though the drive home was in the dark

Did I copy?...............Damn right

I saw your MY(old) transformed dude and there was no way i was going to Surrey without one

Lindsay asked if the boot needed drilling and thankfully, he was able to use the existing mounting points without too much fuss. There is a small gap between boot lid and spoiler but we are talking a maximum of 1mm. Certainly not enough to warrant drilling holes everywhere.

Just the pimp tints to do now (Your fault Darren Tidday ) thats in for Feb 12th and then that's it.....No really, thats it........Im mean it

Thanks for ya comments sofar dudes

Talking

My handles and mirrors are colour coded dude, the sills don't come coded, and i'm not sure that £2-300 spent on having the sills painted so that i can watch it get chipped off again is a good idea

Because the car is dark anyway i don't reckon it would make that much of a difference. It certainly does on light cars though.

Gutted this morning, girl from accounts comes into my office and says in a matter of fact manner, "not very big is it"

I let the comment go on the basis that she's pretty!

So Mikey,

After all that faffing around with the Eibachs and "I can't afford them", you go and spend loads more on something that doesn't help your car go faster/handle better...

That looks so good, I might have to think about getting one. But I can't afford it yet - not since the garage door blew off its runners last week and now needs replacing. Luckily I was out at the time. And I still want a backbox, wheels, etc etc.

Dave, the thing could be spotless and you'd pull it up on something, like dust in me valve cap or summat

Really bizarre, forgot all about this thread and then suddenly, hundreds of people have now seen me spoiler.
