"Snap-On" slip over car seat covers, especially the "Real Fake Ones"(tm). They've gone from industry use to "Strap-On"(tm) use....

First question I'd ask is if it's real...
Looks chopped.

HAHA this was the only pic I had that wasn't someone else's car so to speak! (too lazy to take a pic of mine - its boring anyway!), as far as i know it was some ford mockup 'look how pretty we can make our ute look' thing. I doubt it even drives, but I could be wrong don't know much about it someone else here probably doe's? Who cares if it is rice it looks tough anyway! : |

I'm pretty sure it's a mockup by Ford. I'm certain I saw this a long time back, in a bunch of photos put up on the old forums, by someone who had done a factory tour, or something.

he should do something with the doortrims to meet up with the dash, it doesnt look right there... obviously you think its rice, judging by the filename..
personally, if it is stock under the bonnet, then yeah its rice, but if its got a nice hot 6 or mild to hot 8 under the bonnet, some decent rims n rubber and suspension work it's not rice at all.... |

ive seen it and have the wheels mag with it in it. HSV boss drove around with the 6.2 litre V8 350kw in his grange, until the had finshed building it. Oh and the VK isnt rice but he has gone a little overboard for a VK.IMO :
