Something I have been working on after work.

Postby SnyperEB » July 27th, 2009, 5:59 pm

Something I have been working on after work. Trial and error. Taken me around 4 hours to get this far, tried a few different things and they have not worked. So had to start again. Slowly getting to what I want it to be like.

non-ABS = lock up at 100 & skid past the roo doing about 95. But you'll look sick doing it :mrgreen:

Yeah I reckon.

If it's as good as the rocker cover in the top pic I'll send him down an XR one to do. $100 should cover it?

Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an ED, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up. Where are you? ...You're on BoostedFalcon, reading the signature your signature could be like! Anything is possible when your car looks like my car... I'm on a computer.
