Amjad Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Nice build! Like the Borbets! What exhaust is that? Looks like either a FPG or the Mongoose on Ebay? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beastmode panda Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Sorry but those borbets look absolutely atrocious. Looks better on the bbs wheels though. Clean otherwise! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Macca_ep91 Posted May 24, 2013 Author Share Posted May 24, 2013 Nice build! Like the Borbets! What exhaust is that? Looks like either a FPG or the Mongoose on Ebay? in not sure on the make of the exhaust? It is the equivalent of a blitz system, cost me £550, 70mm, a good buy for decent quality pipe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Macca_ep91 Posted May 24, 2013 Author Share Posted May 24, 2013 The car is a bit marmite really with the wheels, but I love them, I only changed to the bbs's for a smoother ride but the Borbets will be going back on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dan Barnes Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Keep the bbs on! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Macca_ep91 Posted May 24, 2013 Author Share Posted May 24, 2013 If I kept the bbs's on I would want more dish, I do love the bbs's as there a rare split but dish is needed lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
