BB1 Scrapyard Dog - Zebras

cheers for wash n clean up the other day Merlin :)

im loving the fgk&kakimoto exhaust so much that i have put the plm tri-y manifold up for sale

to celebrate it all i have removed the 5th gen plain grey mats and replaced them with a set of 4th gen Access Zebra mats which look a lot better. :)
I will also be replacing the blue rocker cover with a fresh oem wrinkle black one when i get a chance.

one thing i noticed is the quality of the 4th gen zebra mats - they are mega heavy and about twice the weight of the 5th gen ones!

:lol: No i fitted the zebra access mats a few days earlier. I had planned on selling them but after cleaning them up decided to fit them to the BB1 - forgot how good they looked :)
I then noticed you had a set in your 5th gen and made a mental note that they might be a good back up set for me :P :lol:

whats happening to your poor neglected 5th gen ? :shock: :? :roll: :crazy:

So i love the fgk/kakimoto exhaust set up it has settled down a bit as far as noise goes but all lude exhausts sound loud if they havent sooted up a bit ;)
Fitted a new distibutor and the car is running sweetly :)
Also replaced the front windscreen washer pump due to mega corrosion on the terminals on the old one
I sold the plm tri-y manifold and i have been thinking about the koni/eibachs shocks and springs - i might just stay at stock ride height so im open to offers on the koni/eibachs if anyone is interested :(
