Maybe he could have got #69 for his parking bay instead of 62 if he had enough folding!

Cheers,

If I was trying to sell you a second (redundant?) pair of strakes, I'd tell you it was "F*$@ING HOT" too if it'd seal the deal

Now the car totally looks like its being held together by saftey pins. to much chrome for a red car in my opinion.

How did you get the car to look so orange? Are you washing it in woolmix?

Call me crazy, but I'm kinda thinking even more strakes could look interesting 7~8 maybe...

The wheels look impressive.

It may not be real but the first sign of cataract is not glare in your eye but change colour sightly. You see your lense have a certain reflective index and change in the structure in the lens in your eye will change your perception of colour.

hehe :o :D

Why aren't we going for 5 but 4?....

I believe everyone has their own colour profiles with their monitors thus why some colours come out different from others.

Gotta wonder, how many strakes can you add before you change the 50/50 weight balance of the car? After all, they are located slightly forward of the middle of the car... instead of lowering, just get copious quantities of strakes... D
