TraV · 25th January 2010, 16:00

cheers, im just doing little things until i can find somone to lower it.

but im gonna spray inside, i was thinking dark blue since my interior is dark blue ill get a pic of it later, i think red looks a bit silly. but any other ideas or coments welcome, i dont really wanna change my interior but i iwll spray to match it.

Billy-Boy-Racer · 25th January 2010, 16:42

i would say its a forte mate, its the same as mine but in red, no central locking no electric mirrors etc, no mirror caps ?
