Nice.
Love the clean look and lack of underseal/body protection on the imports...shame it won't be like that by Easter.

Lol i no my last one was imported from new and had plenty of rust under neath it , im gonna have the inside of the arches painted so i can keep em clean to try and prolong the rust attack

I have access to ramps so ill protect the under side of the car and get it up once a month and scrub it/clean it
