Nanglebadger Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Looks like a good base dude, nice to see a square light!!! that green GT with the TOM's spoiler, dont suppose your mate used that as a daily driver in the last few years?? Reason I ask is i used to see one just like that on the M2 / Moira - Glenavy road pretty often in the mornings, looked sweet! Keep us updated on your progress! Phil.
