morgey Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Always have liked factory gt advances But A Few Subtle Mods Would Be Fine Surely? Or you Could opt for optional extra alloys instead? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
matty gt Posted March 19, 2014 Author Share Posted March 19, 2014 Beauty .. Oem is the way forward now thanks darragh yours will be awesome to Always have liked factory gt advances But A Few Subtle Mods Would Be Fine Surely?Or you Could opt for optional extra alloys instead?ya i like your way of thinking a couple of the irish boys were slating me oem no extras fuck it standard looking and load her with optional s what would you think see would look like if i fitted mu full optional extra aero kit ? lots more pictures to come Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 if you can get it to full factory concours condition then yeah go for it, will be worth a bomb in years to come id imagine! but if you have engine mods etc then that will take that away anyway. the same could be said if it had optional bits, since they are factory then theres nothing wrong with it imo. At the end of the day its your car, do with it what you see fit. most mods can be taken off if you dont like them anyway Quote Link to post Share on other sites
