Very nice for a car at 17, although I hate the exhaust. Each to their own though :|

It's the best colour too :mrgreen:

I do and it seems to make fack all difference!

Tom, nice car, needs skirts to make the front match though, looks a bit too ott compared to the rest.

Are those tail pipes screwed to the ends of the original pipes?

Looks like the exhaust needs a new design then lol

planing on making the car follow the same live as the front bumper because it's different and every 1 seems to like it.

so heres whats happen on it over the next couple of weeks:

Matt black lexus light conversion
side skirts from racedesign
veilside rear bumper
front quad haedlights from rogue

This sound any good ?

Thanks for your comments glad every 1 likes the front bumper but not many liking the exhaust :lol:

lights are a very marmite subject, people either like them or they dont.. personally i hate the pop-ups i think they look 80's and dated.. they also make you go slower on the motorway :whistle:

I love the orignial rev 1 rear lights tho.. so like i siad lights are marmite.
You cant go wrong with a veilside rear bumper. Never seen race designs sides so cant comment :)

Hi mate, nice clean looking MR2, side skirts would bring the sides to the level of the front bumper 8)

and maybe some border or phoenix power rear extensions.

I would defo change that exhaust for a mongoose or some custom twin exit job.

The only thing wrong with the zorst is that it pokes way too far out from the bumper.
