Hey Guys
Just a couple of questions i have and hopefully someone knows.

Whose FTO is that in the banner for the site? i really like the bonnet and im just chasing
any info on it if anyone knows.

Also has anyone changed their aerial? i really hate the big stupid looking factory aerial,
just seeing if anyone has had some success with replacements?

No good news on either front im afraid. Bonnet (and the car for that matter) is from the UK. No-one will post (its been investigated already). As for the aerial, no, you are not going to find a replacement. Quite a few FTO's dont have the aerial actually. Instead, they have the aerial built into the rear windscreen (does a crap job though).

Only thing you can do for the aerial is keep it unextended, the button should be left side behind the steering wheel.

That's because of where you live. :lol:

It does a pretty good job here in Newcastle.

Although I don't listen to the radio.

Thanks guys.

That sucks about the bonnet, it looks hot as!! looks like the ferrari maranella bonnet.

i might just rip the aerial out and weld it up when i get my boot done and stick an M3 shark one on ;P

Hey that car is optioned out. Has momo shifter, optional steering wheel and rear bar FTO insert. And I think I spot kickplates in the multi photo.

Would almost be worth buying for all the goodies..

You'd buy a whole car to take $100 of parts out of it ?
