My cars been on the road now for just about 2 years & it's been a total blast. But, you know how things are, sometimes you get the urge to change things just for the sake of change. I've got a thing about historic race cars & had someone photoshop this for me to see what it's look like. Maybe one or 2 more decals just to finish it off.

I love the car as it is now, just very understated, but then again I also like the race car look too :S I could live with either, so what do you guys reckon, keep it as it is or change it??

your choice of wheels REALLY suit the historic race car look, but to carry it off properly, it needs a cage (at least, a rear cage), and a side exit exhaust, with both pipes coming out just in front of the rear wheel, on one side only.

just my opinion, but either way it looks great.

Hi Biff, the car does have a rear cage, but it's fitted really close to the bodywork, so that it's barely visible from outside :thumbup:

Hi , another vote for the keep it as it is . I love classic race cars as well but tend to favor the '' less is more ''minimalist look for muscle cars .

I like both ways..

Why not sticker it for a while, and then change it when you get bored... :thumbup:

To be honest that was the main thinking behind it, but I really don't know if I want the possible aggro of paint damage when removing the stickers. Sometimes you'll find that when stickers are removed, they leave a small "imprint" on the paint. I've found that in the past, when removing stickers from a van lets say, even after the van's been flatted down & re painted, the imprint can occasionally still be seen.

Mmm, I think I might well leave it as it is for now & see how I feel at some point in the future

cheers...Nige
