I think with the Dark Agents you really need to paint the red strip black now. When are you getting the red walls?

Nice car mate just got one question about the new rims. You call them dark agent yet they are acually dark argent wheels. Is this some kind of in joke as ive seen them called dark agent on other forums or do people not understand what they are talking about? Argent is a grey colour it was used by Crysler in the 60's and 70's on there muscle car grills. As the wheels are dark grey Ford called the wheels dark argent, sound better than dark grey " nice wheels mate what are they?" " there dark greys". Not trying to be a smart arse but i just find it funny when seemingly knowledgable people on this and other forums (fordxr6turbo.com) make a mistake on a common factory wheel.

G'day mate,

I paid for the BA GT rim that he was selling a little while back.

(thread here viewtopic.phpf=9&t=6691&p=137717&hilit=ba+gt+wheel#p137717)

...said he was busy back then and didn't have time to drop it off at a shop in Wagga (that my old place of work did business with). I was even able to pass through Wagga a couple of weeks ago and pick the damn thing up...no reply to that PM...I know he hasn't been online Since Jan 4...but considering the sale was back about 3 months ago, I think it's pretty poor form that he has not honoured his end of the bargain, despite my attempts to make things easier for him.

If you have any contact details, I'd like to try and contact him - maybe he has just forgotten *shrugs*...either which way, Daniel should at least get in touch with me - I'm not pissed...just want this sorted :)

this car isnt factory black, its been painted jet black. But, im pretty sure there WERE some black el's made from factory? I think 20 el's were painted in black from factory in 1998 towards the runout of the last models? Im not 100% though, just remember reading that somewhere.

I spoke to him on fordforums. Seems this car is up for sale. $7500 he wants for it which I think it well worth it.
