Re: Eunos Roadster
the rims after a good clean and polish before i fit them
quick little update my cointray/ashtray or what ever you wanna call it had a grey velvet pocket in it which was ruined by the previous owner by smoking and using it as a ashtray so i had a bright idea lol
so heres some pics before
and my idea was remove the ruined grey pocket and retrim the entire inside in red velvet like so
let me know what you think
they were £555 from ncb motorsport and all i can say is what a company i ordered them yesterday at 4ish and they turned up today, all i can say is im a happy chap heres some pics with what i gotta at my door today,
the boring box haha
now the goodies
havent really done a lot just a service and new shifter boot kit so nothing exciting but i finally got my car lower im happy now just need to roll my front wings now as they catch also need a front lip and sort my wonky number plate ^_^
and i thought i had to get these pics aswell
