does the FF 182 have silver ones..?

they have a navy sort of plastic with bleu spckles in them - thats my best attempt at trying to desribe them! they're miles better looking than the cheapness in our Trophy's anyway

I'll check tonight for you mate, but iirc they are black.

You could take em off & do yourself over the course of a weekend.

oh no i forgot about that...flashback...not good
we need to find that car this year and get the owner to do a "changing rooms" style make over taking back to its original condition..

 

[hoolio]

Didn't i read somewhere that someone had taken this on and put it back to it's original state, or is it saturday morning head playing tricks on me. :?

 

[oliie]

Hoolio - no tricks this morning That is what I remember reading as well. Although I am not too sure we ever knew the car number so that we can check it out as it currently stands...

Can't remember off hand but the owner is definitely registered on here now. He spent quite a lot of dough putting it back to standard. What a star.

 

[artdealer]

I remember saying I would do that if it came through my hands, but has built up quite a few owners now I believe.

i havent read that...the pics were posted again a few months back,someone said it was done by a main dealer who thought they could improve on the trophy...they actually sold it as well....but never heard the owner on here

he emailed me personally and said he'd been browsing the site and had since bought the car and at a little bit of expense had got it put back to 'normal'.

i'm also pretty sure that he has since registered and joined the site now too

I read somewhere that it was done by a main dealer, but at the request of the first owner!

 

[Cue]

yeh - the guy who bought it has indeed 'restored it'. Graham at Permagard, stockport - treated it to permagard just before xmas and he said there is only a bit of the silver left. The owner is reg'd on here because he'd commented on the site.

 

[7MAT]

Well if he's restoring it back to normal then he's safe to post. Well done to that man!
