Yes DR that's what Rare's fitted to mine.
I note that CB's has engine mount holes - suppose it gives either plant a home......

does a pearlmix paint need special attention to maintain the look?

Looks good matty !

Are you putting the chrome back on the tailgate ? Think its a pretty distinguishing feature of your car mate , hope they go back on.

[mattymartin]

hey mephious,


well........... at the moment this is my biggest delema!


question 1.
trim or no trim....
you thoughts would be apreciated...

at the moment my wife & i like pic #2 with the trim on but shorter...
(like DR's, yes i have his blessing)








question 2.
is do i put the stips back on the tailgate, will they look good on the yellow.
i loved them on the black, but i'm not convinced they will look good on the yellow...
let me know what you guys think.



and just because looks different... different isn't always a good thing...




thanks

I like the chrome on the tailgate, plenty of people have coppied other peoples ideas before. I think if your having a standard color the full side trim looks just rite. DR's trim looks good with the custom theam of his car, but if you like it go for it, Trev .

[Malcolm]

Matty,

I to like picky no. 2. suits the standard look

Tailgate chrome, also a yes, more chrome bling the better I think.

Keep the pickies coming.

Cheers

All business up front and PPPPAAAARRRTTTTEEEEEEE! out back

Add the chrome back on the tailgate, it will help work well with the trimmed side trim.

[Blacky]

I would go with the trims on the tailgate , I reckon it would look good without the handle too .......... but it would take a bit of doing.
