LOVE that colour. I think Brendan is also going for Aqua Blue but he is a little way from spray painting ;)

When I started the speedy project aqua blue and black was on my wish list ...its obvious I went with black.
Aqua blue and tan upholstery just beautiful.
How many SA speedster owners have, will be doing the nose job?

Dunno, can't be more than a handful I guess. Dunno how many Garth has sold out and out though. I'll only be doing the graft on with Garth, everything else I'll take to Michael Cruz.

I was always going to go with tan interior as it just looked right, then it was just deciding what the cars colour looked best with it.

I've had a black car............promised myself never again.

Aquamarine also goes nice with red interior.

Seriously... I know maybe one more person who would go to the trouble of doing the nose job. .. so four cars. .. tops. Someone might do it but then they will add golf door handles and landy indicators and think it looks 'the tits'

Manny what's the deal with the nose swap anyway, can Garth give it back to you once he's chopped it off? I'm thinking of some half nose cut for wall art in my garage when he's done.

I wonder if he'll charge more for the client to keep the nose clip?

LOL, I needed a bit of humor.
As far as I am concerned Garth can have mine, :bn: I don't want it.

I have gone a different route not having had the luxury of Garths Mouldings at the time.

The whole replacement is not really necessary unless you also go for the tank mod
