| Re: Blue Astra mk5 VXR Gutted. Typical VXR CHAV tbh, see them a lot and I hear most VXR's come with a free baseball cap.

| Re: Blue Astra mk5 VXR Report it anyway for the time being. There may some CCTV around the area of use, or a blue Astra may be involved with another crime.

| Re: Blue Astra mk5 VXR If I ever come across BBJ's Evo in the flesh, not sure if I would want to even look at! He might take it the wrong way and I end up with my head tickled with a 9 iron |

| Re: Blue Astra mk5 VXR If your car was in the vicinity then I don't think anyone around would notice what your looking at as all their eyes would be glued to the beast. Quote:

Just you weight till I tart up my princes when I get home. The Splitter, exhaust guard and the spark cover (carbon fiber for all) are all saved and ready to order before getting back in the uk. As well with my samco hoses and cams. Im sure If we organice a cat walk comp in the summer, My sexy Evo would be up there with the beast
Granted, my Evo's arse wont look as nice as the Beasts, but I don't have a custom defuser built from Sweedn (I think wasn't it T9) on mine!! |

I have sorted it out. We are having a Febuary Christmas, I have sent here a little something in the post (Some perfume and cosey slippers) and she will get her new phone and about 10 stocking fillers when I get back. Not sure how much a second hand Evo 9 Rear bumper, or just the defuser would cost  . Prob set me back quite a bit. May have to weight untill this time next year. I have 1K to spend on insurance before I buy any mods! |

| Re: Blue Astra mk5 VXR Can you not just buy the carbon defuser second hand. I have seen a load for new for about 600 sheets, but the problem is, if i buy that one, it would cost another 200 to spray. |

| Re: Blue Astra mk5 VXR Was just a quick gander. I bet you could get one cheaper if you shopped around. There's got to be an Evo breakers somewhere in the uk. Might be worth a search. |

| Re: Blue Astra mk5 VXR Thanks
I just don't want the hastle of replacing the back bumper, I have only just spend a ton on it! lol
Can you buy just a defuser? From the 9 I mean. I know you can buy aftermarket ones, but I don't like the look of a lot of them from Japan, they look a bit ''forced'' to me. Trying to be something they aint. Fake, might be a better word to describe em. |
