thanks for all the comments guys, i was unsure how people were going to react to it with this trim, seeming the last one was totally different. but to be honest im way over the big wheels, big trim. im happy with the race spec look! I just got myself a set of convo pro's going to fit them up without tubbing it. rears are 8.5 3/38. once there fitted (which will take a while) ill get some pics up!

See if i have some shots of the interior, might not.And i can't put it back in atm as the back seat has to go back to the motor trimmers to fit round the mini tubs and all the **** is out to cage it anyway . I have convos aswell..lol nice work anyway i love it, just needs more boost ,rofl... cheers darren
