That looks shit hot mate, glad they repaired it. Would have been sad to seen such a unique looking E-series disappear

There is too much white on this car I reckon.
Maybe paint the wheels satin gunmetal grey or similar.

yeh it is now after i got fitted a $350 cat back 2.5 system with muffler and rear resonator. got it tested at 89 db , so just under the 90 db legal it has to be.gonna leave it the way it is dont want too much attention from cops and it has cost me $400 all up with the noise test ,so once i send certificate to epa it will be cleared and be all good.

I like the look of this car :) Even if it does have bloody 20s on it :P

Sucks so bad that they can send you to get a noise test (that you have to pay for!!) without actually measuring it at all! That's bullshit!

I know what you're saying Rollin about the 20s. I'm not a huge fan of big wheels, but it looks good on this.

If your 2.5" was loud then I'm gonna be screwed with extractors/hi-flow cats/twin 2.5" into 3". It has 1 muffler and 1 resonator but I don't like my chances. I suppose it will come down to who does the roady.

Found a slow leak in my front right tyre,so went to tyre shop and found a crack in my rim and it was leaking air from the crack. thats the bad news, good news is that i am getting new wheels.went for versus 20 x 8.5 all round white spokes and machined lip. they should look good.will post pics up when wheels arrive and get them on car, maybe thurs.
