man what u need are some clear tail lights to complete the look. im not a big fan of the vs front or the crome rims but i have to say your car does look pretty up there with the "show cars" and does look good on your car too.

Barf, love the third pic. THat is some cool graffiti on the walls!

Not a big fan of the VS rear bar, or the rest of the kit for that matter, but your car looks hot all the same. The more I see an FTO with no wing, the more that I like it!

Would love to see it "in the flesh" though for a proper opinion.

Looks good mate, never can decide wether I like the FTO with or without a spoiler. Only comment is looks like the muffler sticks out too much IMO but that might just be the angle of the pic. :wink:

where do u get the muffler and how much does it cost to fix it?

i bought a cannon muffler and the guys can't fit it at an angle, he said he have to change all the piping and that will cost very2 expensive and not worth it. he wont even quote a price for me.

You need to find another exhaust shop.... piping is cheap & easy to do

Yeah it does stick out way to much, look ok on the stock rearbar but with the VS bar it does stick out, luckly ive got a stock cat and piping so when i get this replaced they can bring it back in abit :D

I just removed my rear spoiler. Got a bit tricky cos the sticky pads holding the spoiler to the boot just wont rip off. had to use wet and dry paper + hot water to remove remaining parts of the pads stuck to my boot.

question is how do you guys (those who are showing their naked bums) cover up the 3 holes (left after taking out the bolts) and the 5 plastic clips?[/img]

    Mig Weld the holes up. You cant get at them very easily from the back, otherwise you could probably fibreglass then fill them. If you tried to use something like bog, im thinking it would only crack. Welders about your only option.
