Got to be honest guys and say these really arent my cup of tea! Think they make the car look almost cheap and tacky. BUT its your motors and if you guys are happy with them then thats cool
Good idea to get em pink and keep that vibe going tho

Cheers mate. I'm not sure exactly what it is I've seen it out a few times it's kind of a motor bike but very big and has lots of chrome on it lol. Nice what ever it is. Deal with classic cars I'll ask next time I go down
