MATE ..that is mint as f**k ! I have a cav slabs in my garage atm waiting a refurb too !! Evryting about it is subtle not in your face ... the black rim contrast well with the red body work ...i am a massive fan of the pre 97 bumpers and with the small number plate that look class . The depos are smart and im afta a set ma self !! good work fella .. whats next ?? :)...na i agree .. if you have an sri or sport you should definetly not de-rubstrip of debadge it coz its heritage ..defo keep the rubstrips .....evil motor mate :D !!
