Apart from that, just keep it stock! :P

more pictures! go onnnnnnn

p.s. no stripes is win. you know the hump is there, that's all that matters.
Whoosha clouded my head lol I forgot to reply to you. That's absolute GOLD!!

I think at most, it would be 4:11's, exhaust and a nice mild tune, nothing more than that and nothing over the top. I really like it as is, even being whisper quiet. I know what's under the bulge, I don't really need it confirmed with an exhaust system. If it were anything else, one of the first things would be an exhaust change, but not this car. This one's different

As for stripes, no I won't be doing it. I do love it plain. But the decals, I just don't know I think what I'll do is grab cheap ones off ebay but not stick them on, just see how they would look on the bulge. I think that'd be the best way for me to decide.

Yes, I know exactly what you mean. Well actually I didn't know until I found out the other day that there were differences lol. I thought they were all made written, not cut out.

Lol you're the one looking for it, not me. I always know where it is

Got some pics, as requested. The weather hasn't been nice enough to take anywhere for some nice shots and as I say that, the sun comes out lol.

Done. Can't believe how quickly they arrived. Only ordered them a couple of days ago and they were here this morning. The vinyl has flecks through it, it's not a flat black and I really like the look of it. Popped them up against the car and me likey. I've yet to put the decals on though. As much as I like them, I'm still debating believe it or not. But they do look good.

Naturally I got "FRDGAL" since those have been my custom plates for years. Thought I'd stick with that name tag for the car
