Wasn't on my high horse to begin with. Just stating the obvious. It wasn't done in the factory, so it looks like crap.

i don't mind the front end look,if the bonnet and nose cone and quarter panels fitted a bit better it would look good .
don't like the ear end though.
the hillier boys had the best looking coupe and the motor to go with it!

I have a company car so I drive it once a month or something HA HA havent driven it since Mid March I dont think...

To top it off, last weekend I got hit by a car whilst cycling, so it'll be a little longer before I drive it again, because a) I can't drive properly yet due to shoulder injury, b) it's so damn low/bone jarring that I'm sure it can't be good for said injury getting in and out of lol...

Once I move back to Syd later this year it will go back to daily duties for a little while depending on the role I take with this company, until I sell it to a P-Plater and buy an E46 M3... well that's the plan ha ha I'll probably just end up with a XR6T/F6 instead :P
