It is my car, except my engine is prettier but you have the nice seats.
What are those two boxy things just inside the headlights under the bonnet?

Ah. Thanks. Didn't realise you needed 'stuff'. Thought you just plugged 'em in. Live and learn.

I know what you mean about colour choice for alloys on a silver car....
White doesn't work
Black isn't great
Bronze is not good
Brighter colours (red, green, blue) are a mixed bag.... I think they tend to work better if the colour is not only on the wheels....
There was a brilliant machine on here with black wheels with orange too which looked stunning, but I think mainly due to the use of orange and black elsewhere on the car.
Maybe black with a red pinstripe? I've seen this look good.
Good luck with it!

Think you really need a polished rim but I want to go light weight wheels And I'm thinking pro race alloys unless any one had a better idea had rota on old ek9 but think 15s will be to small?

I'm too embarrassed to get mine done. I think you're right about the wheels though.
the main things planed are getting her bk up to scratch then more power will make a list when I have more time! Hear she is!
