I shouldn't, but I like this one.
Never been a fan of green wheels, etc. But this I suprisingly like

I like this one. It's not covered in vents and bulges.

Yeah I like the one with the green wheels as well, that color really sets it off. Don't like those dodgy little vents on the front guards though... why
And the gunmetal grey one would look awesome without those dodgy flared guards. Bolt ons only look good on SLR5000 Toranas

I think....I think the little vents are there because the side repeaters were originally there and instead of welding them up, has decided to put those vent things on

with the gun metal one i think if they molded the wide arches to the car and bumper and followed the same cut lines as the bumper and guards it would look better and mayb mold the skirts how dstocks did

Yeah there was a pic of one a while ago with the guards molded, looked like an Aston Marton, really well done and looked mean as!

In the fourth picture down the white FTO, does anyone know where i can get rear lights that look like this and how much around will they cost?

The clear tail lights? there were made in limited numbers and were expensive brand new, they are now very expensive ($1500 or so) and very rare. They were also renowned for leakages and had to be resealed

I don't know lol
umm could well be the odd set of Creative sports extractors or Y down pipe or maybe some pro shop Iida stuff but to be honest I wouldn't think so
I know Nono was thinking of making a turbo set for the FTO but there wasn't enough interest
