spindat45 0 Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 A very smooth, clean and tidy example you got there mate! Front wings changed too I see Just wondered if that is the original number plate?. My reg is VERY close to yours (K** **G) but I bought it a couple of years ago from DVLA for my VR.Kevin Link to post Share on other sites
Dodson 0 Posted July 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 No thats a private plate that mate, goin back to the lad i bought the car off aswell.Ive also had exhaust straightened, its a lot better but still not perfect, its a Jetex system and seems a really crap fit, the hanger on the back corner seems to sit too low so wont lift up enough to sit straight also it rattles like crazy on the bottom of the car, is there some kind of way of fixing this on the Lowered VR's???Anyway before..After...I also lowered her a bit mor the other day...
