Sweet ride! What does it say below the (blue s:? :? s:? ) repeaters?

just noticed the different shade of silver on the 03 intakes s:shock: :shock: s:shock:

GSB · June 17, 2004, 11:12

That'd be because they're not silver...

Anonymous · June 17, 2004, 11:16

sorry, thought t looked a little like the 03 silver, but looking at them closer they look blue?

I think aesthetically it looks nice, how has the handling been affected, do you get any wheel rub with spirited cornering?

I like that description! Next time my missus moans about my speed when I approach a bend / roundabout, I'll put on my best Michael Winner (Esure ad) voice and say 'but my dear it's spirited cornering' s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

no rubbing whatsoever but they have not really settled yet so im being careful till they do.(settled that is not rubbing)
the difference on the steering is amazing, so much sharper.
