I'd imagine I know what Adam wants, there's a couple of bits I'd be after too :lol: We didn't get A/C over here.

One of the Aus guys sells strut braces, and damn fine they are too, I have one sat next to me here!

I'm thinking about making one when I have the time, the design is simple and I could possibly get some measurements off of the one chris is looking after. Will have a think after exams.

im more looking for body kits and styling parts etc as everything on the mechanical side of things i can pretty much get what i need.

and considering i cant even find body kits in oz for my 240 ive got a feeling im not gunna have much luck finding a 360 kit here lol, that unless someone knows where i can get some here

otherwise yer if i can get some imported ill be happy :)
