it will be the same... I like it and it's cheaper
what do you mean by distinctive? you don't like the colour? is too dark or to lowprofile?

oh nono, I was just wondering if you had some other colour in mind like purple (I don't know what I'd really like a dark purple race car one day!) or orange or something like that you know? But to be honest, I quite like your F's colour

many thanks crawford
you were talking about the all-red panel? it is very easy to do and a nice update keeping the designers' shapes
I've now the two white lenses configuration but will still use red transparent sticker on the repeaters because the orange doesn't match anything since I've changed the side repeaters

thanks you all
al3x the only scratches you see on that picture are the window ones...nothing to do about them

it took a couple of weeks to make the car new again
every wrecked thing was fixed and painted
I have not asked for a wheel paint but they did it also aswell as wiper arms and other stuff
I'm very happy with that
done to the detail

Lovely colour! ! < unique

But have you thought about both lowering the car and buying new alloys?

Just one of those two things or both would make such an impact in how it looks. I mean the colour is Fing great but its so high on its wheels.

When I bought mine that was one of the first things I got sorted out, started buying new alloys but didnt like them that much. But overall it took three weeks before I had the lowering springs at home.

Now I just cannot wait till I finish the third and fourth wheels, then some proper pirelli rubber and good to go!
