Hey,
Got a few questions about things on my car, after your opinions also. 1stly) It has a factory sunroof, but the cover doesn't close all the way, it is as if something is blocking it, stops about an inch short of closing, just wondering if anybody else has this problem. 2ndly) The car was advertised with a high flow cat and extractors, now that i have had a closer look at the car I've noticed that it has neither of these. I've just emailed the guy, anybody know where i can stand on this? 3rdly) The car has a full venom body kit, now i'm contemplating selling the side skirts and the rear bar, and buying a tickford kit, well the rear bad and sideskirts. If i sold part of the venom kit would i be out of money? Is the venom parts worth more then the tickford bodkit. 4thly) The car has no badges on the sides and the side, front and back strip is the same color as the car. I'm thinking it will look better with the red and the badges, so i've done a photoshop and let me know what you think. I know its not spot on and perfect but yeah. Sorry about all the questions, but the help would be appreciated. Cheers Shane |

N9=Navy Blue
It's a bit of a personal preference i think in regards to the red moulds and badges. I personally think that photoshop with the red looks pretty good.

car looks prity nice man
Q2) was this a full exhaust? or just high flow and extractors? he may of taken it off when he sold it to you, or just displayed it to sell it easier which is obviously false advertising. but considering youve payed for the car, the transaction has already been made...really you should check these things out before buying, even thow you shouldnt have too Q3) i wouldnt imaging there be much difference in price between the 2 kits, you could possibly make your money back to buy a tickford kit, who knows, but really just depends how badly you want a tickford kit, my persoanl opinion is that it looks fine with it on Q4) i would defornetly be puttin badges and a red strip around it again, the way it is atm is too dark, you need something to stand out and the red dose the trick |

if you got the tickford kit your car would basicly look like the one in this forsale thread.
http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthread.php?t=73617 that with the ef kit and it looks good, the el kit is more aggressive and would suit the front bar well. |

Yeah, I think i will keep the venom body kit.
And i am definatly going to paint the red moulds and put the badges on. Also going to cut the front springs a tiny bit because it sits higher then the back at the moment Need to fix up the mesh in the front bar too, put that back in. Then in the long term some new 18's. |
