Welkom terug Wil
I think I liked the round G60 headlights and silver BBS rims more, but that's just my personal taste.

dankjewel stipud
personal taste it is and this is mine..
it's just that the car did'nt feel like it was "mine"the way it looked when i bought it..
still it looked really nice but you have to give a twist of you own right

thnx
it's a G60 actually
with a 68 mm pully
stage 2 tuned G-lader
modified chip
supersprint exhaust with race manifold also supersprint
and a bypass valve.
should put out a humble 205 bhp (could be 210 but ill keep it on the safe side untill i know for sure. it gave 169 hp at the wheels and thats without the supersprint exhaust and bypass valve and also there were some sensors hangin loose in the engine bay so)
