Pearsy47 1 Posted December 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 What i would do for a set of borbets that would look mental actually. Did you pay a lot for the samcos?Lol really you would do anything lol i think in total the samcos cost about £200 but i thought it was worth it so show off the engine bay abit more !! there are still little bits i want to sort out but to cold to work on the motor like last night i fitted my mates strut brace for him that to long !! lol Link to post Share on other sites
SamboVr6 0 Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Lol know what you mean |-) is freezing. £200 def worth it. I never even knew they did them in that colour.
