Cool project. Best of luck dude and dudette :D

It\'s so unfair! Why do I have a missus who\'s happy with a R*n**lt Meg**nne rather than wanting a cool RX and a garden full of GTiRs? I demand a refund!

Btw, speaking from recent bitter MOT experience, those bugeye headlights will fail on lack of beam pattern, dude. Shame, really, I think they look great personally (though I do seem to be in a seriously small minority on that one!)

Post by: Mims on April 09, 2008, 06:48:42 PM

Those headlights have only been fitted for venting and the arches are from Lightning Dynamics :)

Post by: gtir303 on April 09, 2008, 11:18:01 PM

yes mate thelights may fail but i have a friendly mot tester and the car will only be used on the road to drive to tracks and 1/4 quarter mile

and yes a very very big thanks to LIGHTNING DYNAMICS for all the help and support sohail u are a top man and very recomended

cheers
