Here are a few snaps of my girlfriends motorsport cab. It's totally standard apart from clear indicators, 17" Alpina Reps and a Scorpion exhaust. We still have the Motorsport BBS for it though!!

It's just a backbox Gaz. I had a full system on mine and then took the backbox off and gave it to Becky. It's got a nice tone but nothing like a full system. Suits the car very well.

Hap
|Very few motorsport cabs actually came with rear head rests. On the hunt for some but as you can imagine, finding some in that colour is proving difficult.

I like the m-tech 2 spoiler, I think it looks a bit plain without them becuase of the rest of the m-tech 2 kit although the spoiler is not a stock option on motorsports.

Looks lovely!!

Colour and interior are :cool:

IMO it looks better without the rear headrests - they just clutter the lines

She did mate because she didn't like the auto 'box. I had to agree to convert it to a manual for her so now she's keeping it. The project commences next week as long as I can source a sport box for it. It's like busses, you're waiting for ages for one to turn up then 4 come at once when it's too late! :roll:

Good luck mate. If she sold it she would be hard pushed to find something as nice to replace it.

I wish i could bring mine here to Italy with me, but they are complete nutters here. I've nearly been run over several times already and traffic lights are just decorations for them. Not to metion the fact that there are some expert theives here as well (My secretary's car was stolen a couple of weeks ago from under her bedroom window and she didn't even hear a thing) so for now, it will just have to live in the garage :cry:

thats a beauty mate, dont sell it. Not a fan of tech2 spoilers on cabs but without rearhead rests it looks pretty good, maybe thats why i didn't like them in the past.

i know there is a definate following of the old school cabs but for me sport should be old school and cabs should be facelift.

Looks very nice, got the rear headrests in mine now, get them if you can as they do make a difference. Adam also done a redye on the yuk grey carpets to a nice blue. Really makes a difference too. Other than that still standard.

Where did you manage to find your headrests Andy? I've been searching high and low but with no luck!

Got a set of medium tan ones and stripped and redyed them using leathermagic dyes. Funny thing was that i redyed all four at the same time, when i finished them all i couldn't tell which ones were the original lotus white ones so I could now have the redyed tan ones in the front. It really does work that well. Got some dye left over so get looking for other lighter coloured ones, beige/tan silver as they will redye ok. May even do it for you if you post em to me!

Wow, sounds great, where did you buy this stuff from? I've got a spare pair of cloth ones so will have to look out for some silver or grey ones.

Her leather is in need of some attention as there are some cracks showing through which I think spoils it.
