Hi all, just thought i'd say i like the chrome arches, they look sweet mate. not too sure how they'd look on a car that wasnt black though. Could i ask you how much getting the inlet manifold polished is costing? I'm trying to way up the 'paying someone / DIY options. Cheers, Guy.

normally i'd say that chrome arches are wrong, but it all seems to work on your car, maybe some more old school rims with a nice polished lip or something would make it look even better :cool: good to see something different!

it lines up with the chrome bumpers. Think it would blend even better if you have the rubber side strip in chrome to give that classic look. :)
