Hahaha smart ass Clint 
There is a reason for that but I'll just let it slide so I'm not making excuses as I don't mind if you think I'm a worthless douche bag hahaha.

Yeah, I'd be looking for a new idol if I were you too hahaha. I'm a total dickhead : )
I'd really like to run twin 2 1/2 inch tail pipes, but it's a 253, and they sound terrible with twin systems. It just has a single straight through system dumped at the diff. I can do that legally here as it ends 18 inches past the last opening to the cabin. Yay!
As for selling it, well, no : )
btw, your gemmie is looking awesome. Nice work.

Noticed that, but didnt wanna be too harsh on ya (just for the record I was jk, just stirring hehe your still my Idol weather u like it or not)
Hmm is it because of the shape of the flare, if you put it any higher you can see the bottom of the sill? (looks like thatd be the case on passenger side but drivers looks ok)

Cause Tim fr0cked up?
Nah, seriously I reckon there might be some more bodywork going to be happening at the back.
Not sure what though.

I never thought a coat of flat black & a set of rims would turn that around!
It looks rather cool now.

I reckon the flare sits funny because you've yet to fix that bolt hole?

Kind of?? I meant the bolt hole in the flare needs fixing properly.
I thought you were referring to the location of the nutsert in the body...

Well isn't this fun hahaha. I was going to say why a little while ago but this is way more interesting : )
A friend of mine made some signs for me today for the ute. I like them.
OK, now that's it from me.
Back to arguing : )

I'd love to come up and do a photoshoot for you! This looks like a very sweet car to photorgaph!
I like the decals, what would look awesome! Would be an old faded look paintjob of your logo. No idea how they do it (You probably do though)... It looks like they stencil it on, and then rub the edges and stuff back to flatten and dull it off....

Hahaha, I've only got 3, so still chasing the last one.
As for painting the logos on, that was my first plan, and do the rub out to give it patina like you mentioned, but I'd have to do that to the whole car for it to work and I just couldn't be bothered : )
As for a photoshoot, not sure it's really worthy of you coming that far!!!!!
