I'd probably worry more about the bald inside edge of the rear tyres, to be honest. :shock:

You'll be needing a rear valance too as yours looks to have been chopped about to accommodate all your tailpipes.

Hi mate, I've always thought the bbs spoiler looks better on darker colours, great choice. agree with the exhaust single pipes looks much better
