Bourkey Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Asda you should so do that to your car. Ignore the parents. I would love to help you build something like that. The five door just oddly adds to the coolness for some reason.Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 i'd be up for helping - sod travel costs, i love taking cars apart and putting them together - gives me some kinda feeling of fun ;)i told Asad he should get a plane ticket to Japan and fill his suitcase with Carat extras from a scrappy - il go with him, fill mine with paseo parts ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 5door.... I do like it alot...im a real fan of extras the EP`s have and not to mention the odd models such as this one, puts most newer cars to shame and does a number 1 followed by a small number 2 on them at the lights ;) .Does anyone know if the bay is any different? rolla mani? @ bourkey if i had the cash i`d have a Kp, one of every model and obviously a fte lump in bob`o.... ;)@ gal lol we should have a jap meet! sod the suitcase well take the cars over and bolt all the parts on, then bring them back ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
