Is that your car? If it is can you let me know if you have any other pictures of it.
Reason is, I have a black v4 STi and am thinking about the v5 rear wing, I can't decide and haven't seen any others about. Also has it got clear lenses? Cheers, Rich |
rich - added another picture link - I think black is best but then I am biased!
funnily enough the clear fronts are going on this w'end and also doing the orange plastic things with matt black paint - will post a pic after the fact. cheers, Paul W |
I see you edited out your number plate in the bottom piccy but what about the top one?
Thanks for the pics though, black is definatley best! |
actually both pics have been edited ;-)
just couldn't be bothered to do tricky replacement of numbers on the second pic! will mail you some higher res pics when the clear indicators are done cheers, Paul |
Very arty!! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif

Just curious. Why do people edit their plates in the pics? What do you gain by it? The only thing I can think of is that if your motor does get nicked they might know who they've nicked it from. Personally it's the nicking part that would annoy me.

I edit the plates simply because a colleague at work here had his plate 'cloned' and the miscreant who was driving around in a car that (to all intents and purposes)looked like his in every way, kept parking illegally and triggering gatsos - the hassle jeremy had wriggling out of paying all the fines etc. was unbelievable - I consequently don't want to be accused of armed robbery etc. if some scum have a nicked scooby and decide to use my reg plate - a bit paranoid maybe ...
also - the DVLC is now allowed to sell its database of registration information with only some items removed - thus this could be used by some unscrupulous people to locate cars of a particular type (to then steal etc.) - I believe that only the housenumber and name of keeper are withheld - thus all other car and address information is effectively in the public domain. cheers, Paul W |
Good points Paul, hadn't thought of that. I wonder if something should be done about the DVLC (Department of Vehicle Locating for Criminals????)selling their database like that. What's the justification for anyone else needing to buy this information?
|
Paul W,
Great pics mate. Cem |
I think the DVLC database does have some ligitimate uses - those insurance quotation systems on the web for instance - can save a lot of time typing in vehicle details if they can be plucked from a database instead - trouble is the data is ropey anyway - think my sti is entered as a '1.8 GL' for instance ;-) - hopefully the DVLC vets its customers though I wouldn't bank on it !
mr paranoid |
Hiya Paul
I got my log boook thingy (V55?) altered as mine was wrongly described - also the chassis number was wrong (missed a digit). Bound to happen as most DVLC data is electronic from manufacturers so they don't get much typing practice . . http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Mind you took a letter to get 'em to do it <sigh> but to cheer me up they had a paper (watermark) problem so they reprinted a batch of V55s, including my original and its replacement. SO now I have 4 copies - how cool is that eh? https://smilecwm.tripod.com/net4/jump.gif later Paul |
