Thought I should probably throw up a few pics of some of my cars.
Will start with present and move onto past. Don't have too many pics of present rides but will do what I can... My most recent purchase was the XF GL. It is quite nice. Totally stock except for the Globes which I have borrowed from my XB. This is the only pic I have of it at the moment: Next, we have Berry. She is a 1974 XB Fairmont in Mulberry, purchased from these very forums. Is currently a stock 302C with a C4. Plans were originally for very mild streeter, but I am leaning more towards pro-street. Will see what happens after I put a big block in her ;)

Now for some past.
Here is my pink EB, this thing drew some attention: Next is my EF wagon, almost completely standard but one of the best cars I have ever owned. Have spent 12 hours in a day behind the wheel of this car and managed 60,000 ks in a year in it: Next is my White EF. This car was awesome! Was very fast and made me very happy, but cost me many thousands of dollars and so we had to part ways...

A rear wing will make your car go a lot faster!
If you want to get the back tyres squealing, give me the keys and I will show you how it's done! Your EL should have more than enough power to spin those babies...

i dont want to really want spin tyres, And i havent since i got these new tyres, but lately i have been noticing a decrease in power for some reason ! that is my little complaint at the moment. As much as i dont want to give my keys to you waitiy :-) the keys are staying with me. as for the common whore as soon as you do a spin they break down just like mums old vt, i have a feeling that i need a new exhaust, i found out that supercheap auto stock lukey exhausts, before i get that i need new exhaust i need cambre kits, The body kit, the boot painted, the spoiler fitted and painted, its just endless i cant wait for it to stop lol and their proberly other drams that i need to fix like by brother decided to change the hard drives over from the old compter to the new computer with out asking me, so i have to pay a couple of hundred to get it fixed :-/ and in the mean time i have to get mums focus fixed and i may have a fine comming in the mail due to my stupidity :-(

stripes look good chris, i see you got a set of personalised plated too. she's really coming along.
see how hard it is to keep a car standard after having owned a modified car?

I'd put the front pic up in the phototshop section and see if someone can do a quick chop for ya.....i think it may make the grille and lights merge too much- i think you need the orange in between to seperate the different areas, but a photoshop will help you decide one way or the other. Also i'm not sure if mudspats are available to suit the Aggressor kit on your xr, you may have to check on that, make sure it's to suit the aggressor kit as there are quite a few mudspat part numbers in the system. :
