Ive just bought my first car ( dont have a license yet ! lol) i fort id have a little play with things but as you know they become slightly adictive debadging turns into fitting an induction kit exhaust etc. I know ill probably destroy my first motor but i cant help myself !.. ive got alot planned so i fort id post a thread
so here we go...............
De-Badged i fort i did a decent job
lol
I dont like the plain plastic bumpers they dont look to good so i got on ebay for a colour coded one picked up for a tenner! only to realise its a normal one thats been painted
did look alot better tho
