Only gripe is the exact thing that i love about it.....those rear guards. A few years ago up here in queensland it seemed to be fairly common practice to cut the skin (outside metal) out to accommodate the wider fenders and then screw them in and glass the gap. This practice is not so prevalent now, with 'over fenders' becoming the done deal......though i rarely see kids up here running them for what i can only assume is to dodge defects given that pop rivets and the slapped on panel look can look cool...but more often than not looked tacked together in 2 secs flat. Its because of this reason that i'm not lieing when i say i have concerns......its a fucking rad car but i wonder how long it will stay on the street before the heat come down on it like a tonne of bricks........time will tell i spose......till then i will enjoy driving it as much as i can.
Anywho this sucker will be getting a rub back and put in a little more subtle colour to start with (feeling gunmetal). The drivers side is in much nicer shape than the passenger side as the bottom of one of the fenders has come loose, nothing some screws, fibreglass and a bit of paint won't fix.
Stay tuned.
