When i had the car painted i did consider it but as i want to keep the car as an everyday driver i was told that the paint would get chipped and basicly sand blasted off every month. Im happy to settle for a painted and polished drive line. ---------- Post added 20-09-11 at 16:24 ---------- Quote: Originally Posted by zaksvl [View Post] the car looks 100x better with out the sticker imo. cheers dude.

$1040 but theres alot of other things you can have done to them like custom engravings, oil drains that will bump the price up. ---------- Post added 26-09-11 at 18:41 ---------- Do we likey? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
