Was wondering when someone would pick up on that lol, I have a clip on for the drivers side. I've just taken it off for the photos (looks better).



Here's some more that my friend took (with much better photography skills than me).

Haha, I see what you mean :oops:

There was an article in one of the magazines about a Japanese mini show a few months ago (the issue with the very dark green and yellow redtop clubman), I saw a small pic of one Jap mini in the corner and thought "bingo!" it was the wide 10's and euroey type arches that did it!

Owen! I never knew you were on here. It's Dan from J19 if you don't recognise the collection of cars in my sig :) The pickup's missing atm, will have to design a new sig >_<

Car does look pretty damn awesome! I hope you've got locking wheel nuts on them wheels, otherwise my pickup may be looking a little bit better than it was going to :) :dontgetit:

It does look lovely! Great job >_<

I'm 99.9% sure the exhaust is perfectly legal.

What width are the tyres on there? I'm just trying to imagine those arches over 12x6's :dontgetit:

I know that, as if you read an earlier post it says they are force racing 10x7's, what I meant was I'm trying to imagine the arches over 12x6's i.e. my car!

Thanks for the tyre size digi-cars >_<
