Hell yes, get the dragways :D

BTW, Dennis would have an XF bar if you want to buy one off him instead? It was only XG bars he didn't have any of.


EDIT
Be a bit cheaper than $150 I reckon..

went and had a look at the dragways i knew they would eventually need tyres but after i said id take them he decided to tell me the beads were f**k and they leaked air :evil: so im not sure if ill buy them just yet go and see what delta parts have tomorrow on my way to pick up my front bar they have a shed full of wheels :P well not full but theres quite a few in there :P

also today me and my uncle were moving stuff out of my grandmas house and when we dropped the couch and 2 arm chairs off to his house there was a random car in the driveway bloke walked around the back of the house asking for directions his misses and kid were in the car uncle checked his house the C*** had broken in :roll: had some stuff ready to take when we pulled up they also smashed a wall in the bed room.......so all tassie member keep an eye out for a silver BA/BF XR6 turbo falcon it has orange stripes up the side of it and some bogan prick driving it.

Yeah awesome.

Personally i don't like it. It wouldn't be so bad if the rest of the console and dash was the same colour, but that's not to say I'm suggesting you spray them :P

Doesn't look all s**t though, and i guess seeing it in real life would make it look better too.
