I was never to keen on the chrome with the big start, the small pin star and the bonnet star! It was just to many stars! THe black one is different but think i may try a colour coded one when I do some small body work repairs and see what that looks like. I still have a totally standard mint condition chrome grill in the garage. The one I worked on was quite a mess thats why I didnt put it on fleabay. Andy

I'm not happy with having no decent photos of the car but as its STILL not finished yet I'll probably leave it 'til the better weather comes in. I voted for Henrik BTW, not my usual tastes but a lovely car with tasteful, well executed mods.

Its old with my racks on the car. doesn't show my avante garde or the other mods. Prefer This One I got a bunch of new CF stuff for the interior and a new Momo steering wheel that looks absolutely amazing. Who knows, i need to take better pictures. -Kyn

I am toying with the option of adding a black (199) one. So I know its there but the oiks wont notice it and rip it off.

Beat that for "custom mods" Black star? Sounds interesting. Let me know how you get on with that one! Hopefully the next time I enter the competition (probs feb now as am away all of jan) I will have my new black car in there. Prepare for some more awesom photography oh and if anyone fancies having a look at what I am doing in Jan http://www.teamcannonball.co.uk Bung us a tenner and some stickers for your company and we will parade your name round and tell every one we meet how cool you are
