Looks nice mate. I rate the carbon fibre dash

[Commando]

Welcome mate, car looks good. CF dash is interesting, reminds me of rental tux pants?

[get_an_ea_today]

looks good mate, except for the carbonfibre dash, and cut that exhaust tip down

I think what you meant to say was "I'll probably put that in soon"

Sorry to be a stickler for perfection but I can't stand that bloody myspace talk.
Nice car by the way, I really miss my EB, it used to be equally as clean as yours but without carbon fibre inside.

[EDFalcon]

Doesnt look too bad there buddy.. Real or fake carbon fibre??

i like the carbon fiber dash, its diferent.
mint looking eb

window tint buddy.

[serial_fool]

Ford really got it right with that colour, plus it suits the XR rims you've got on nicely.

Nice car mate.

nice lookin eb..... The carbon fibre look is pretty good, big fan of the gtp's......Im not a fan of the quadlight setup on the box cars..... I'd leave it off then sell it to someone and use that money for other areas.... tint, extractors or a cam perhaps?

[makvaiielles_xr6]

great lookin car there mate. im not sold on the C/F dash though. dont worry about the 3.5 inch dumper pipe either (just cut it back a bit). still its a nice car

[Eb Barbie]

Not bad for a P plater car love what you have done to the dash!!

[get_an_ea_today]

it used to be equally as clean as yours

it still is, but its going to be different soon enough :p

Nice lookin' ride dude. My housemate Sam said he worked with you the other day (big fella, shaved head, goatee) and told me about your car, he said it looked sweet!

With your tailpipe, an easy cheap fix to get it lookin' a little better is to lop about 1-2" off the end of it (as someone said earlier) so it sits a little further under the bumper and doesn't stick out so much. It'll look a bit better until you get a nice tip on there

EDIT: my bad, the exhaust tip idea has been said way more times than i thought, my bad.

[XRated]

Yeah looks good bud. I'm not sold on the CF look - is it just stuck on? The weave in it looks too big. I planned to get it done years ago by http://www.modicoat.com but never bothered.

I wouldn't t waste anymore time or cash on the exterior - it looks sweet on the FPV wheels.

[BlackED_Sprint]

the wheels look 'kn sweet in real life guys, suits the colour down to the ground. nice clean car.
im not usually a fan of the CF look, but the pix dont do it justice.

Nice car, I have an EBII Fairmont and yours looks similar to how I hope mine will turn out!

Quick Question however,
How much is it all up to get the suspension done with those Super Lows? Is that Pedder or something?

well it cost me $50 because i just bought the springs of a mate and put them in myself... its not a hard job if u have spring clamps, and even if u dount they cost like 20 bucks from super cheap..

[Simple6]

Ah alright - and you used stock shocks at the same time?

Might give that a go - Pedders wanted $1150 for the job...but I'm not keen to spend that much!

yes i did use the stock struts..

[huggiebear]

love the car... i dont mind the carbon fibre dash... not something you see all the time.
