Needs a set of pressed ally plates, Mate.

they are getting mega strict on plates now, and pressed alloy plates, even the reflective ones are illegal.

not worth the risk IMHO.. plus they always seem to look dirty and tatty..

The boot rams are good because it was imported with a sunscreen thing on it that weighed quite a bit,if you want any pics of it when it came in mate let me know as it may be good for your documentation

How about this one then

Giblets · July 18, 2006, 04:26:05 AM

Fubar - Are you sure you want to stick your rear light clusters on this matey?

I'm really not sure it's a good look myself, as your car is nice and standard visually. Only my opinion of course, but I'd keep the rear lights standard, as I've always liked them.

They are just Overlays m8, the stock lights are still underneath.

My Drive today:

The fleet !

Giblets · July 18, 2006, 12:24:36 PM

You have a double drive?

YOU SWINE !!!

The lenses don't look too bad actually, and as you say they are removable.

I just find the whole concept a bit Halfords for my tastes, but it looks better on the blue car.

Funny they always seem better with darker colours like blue & black ?
I still prefer orange with red paint ( said Mr Bog Standard )

philoldsmobile · July 18, 2006, 04:42:02 PM

i dunno.... i've seen clear markers on red peanut headlight camaro's, and they look pretty damned good!

orange and red seem to clash to me

FUBAR · July 23, 2006, 05:49:53 PM

Been cleaning the IROC's engine bay this evening

Until the Exhaust, Steering wheel & new door rubbers arrive there's nothing else to do on it!! Its quite a nice feeling actually!

n.b. Auto Glym Instant Show shine spray is very good at removing mild engine bay grime
