Both of your cars look so awesome, i'm blown away with the work you put into it, will be a proper machine when you've finished with it
Out of interest, what size tyres are you running on your 13's and have you had to pull/roll the arches at all or did you just get the right off set in the first place

Whats the matter with the car i'm driving can't you tell that it's out of style?
