Needs to be lowered. Not a fan of those wheels at all. The tinted headlights look wrong. Green interior light is a winner. But if you're happy with it, that's all that matters...

if you don't like it thats fine, but why would you go out flame someone that has done what he wanted to do to his first car.

I know that there are people that like and dislike my car. I LOVE my car. I don't care what you think, but the thought of someone that types a whole post about how much they don't like this car is wrong.

People express their thoughts because this is an open forum ORSMXT...it comes back to the owner of the car to whether they are going to get offended at the remarks or not.

Why is it that everyone loves getting praise about what they have done to their car, but then arks up when someone else honestly expresses themselves with negative points...??

Lol. Better make it clear before anyone else expresses their negative opinions then..
***ORSMXT wants no negative comments about his car. Thank you.***

Seriously mate, it's by the good and the bad comments that we make improvements.

Who was nasty anyway? Where's the flaming? I just see people stating what they like and don't like. A word of advice mate. Don't ask for people opinions if you don't want some of those people to say things you don't like! Cheers!

Good Luck

Thumbs up

Heya ORSM-XT,

I dont use the forums very often but thought I would say that I really like your car. A few things that I especially admired was the custom paint job on the brakes and the engine bay.

Very inspiring to me as another n/a BA enthusiast to get going on a few mods myself.

From what I have read you are from Vic? Im around SE melb and Im sure ive seen your car around. Maybe it is just other people copying ya? haha

Anyway, well done man and keep us posted!

The top of the Shepp. Multi-deck. Go back at dusk, or a nice overcast day for a better effect with the photos. Tone down the wheels, still dark thou, and it would be a sweet looking xt.
