Strikey Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 looking good but having a blue car myself i would have preferred the black one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EscortPaul Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Sounds nice mate, cost a few bob tho!! Just a suggestion, sand down the chrome grill and paint it black, would suit the colour scheme very well imo. I know mine are chrome but seem to go well with moondust silver.
