So what's your plans for the engine bay, the red looks sh|t house imo.

It's really just the head rests that are different but nothing the less they look great. Im interested in getting into the Automotive interior/upholstery business :lol: Plenty of business just in this thread.

Can't believe the ricer dash haha, you have done well and cleaned it up just in need of a new steering device :P

The full body kit looks awesome and the new wheels are a great asset.

Regards.

I would think long and hard about spraying your car black. My AU XR6 is Silhouette and it is a bugger to look after.

PlyBoi, I think your car looks very good matey and I love the seats. :)

What do you mean you like the small standard one vs the better and bigger ticky snorkel?
are we thinking of the same thing? the snorkel pre airbox?

Isn't that the standard Tickford rocker cover for the EL? I quite like it, if you're into having anything original on the car that is. I went to great expense (not really that great to be honest) to get a colour matched high temp paint made up to the Tickford red so that my rocker cover was stripped back, tidied up and resprayed with the original red once more.

Hmm... Spare rocker covers are cheap and easy to find... No problem having one on the car and another being worked on or changed to suit your taste. Those EL Tickford covers are slightly different with their Tickford stick on badge in front of filler cap...

As for factory spec engine bay... Did it come with extractors and no bonnet lining? Also - What is that device you have in the suction line which provides negative air pressure to the brake booster?

Car is definitely on the right track now you own it mate. Keep it up...
