Cheers mate thanks,

 

A guy up this way has a new one the same,and is moving to Melbourne soon,he has not erected it yet,said he was going to sell it,so i probably will buy his if the price is right, if not i,ll get one with warranty.

 

yep sounds good mate cost me $200 for shipping and i must say they are very easy to put up....

[bullitA9X]

had a bit of a play around today with the new front spoiler and i must say im very very impressed with the way it fits... im also the proud new owner of these personalised number plates given to me by my mate who sold his ss recently....
