Good to see another Atlantis blue! Not a fan of wheels or exhaust but that's just my opinion!

well i search google to see what mine would look like with gsi front bumper and fully colour coded. and your came up so i had a quick look at other photos and your is how i dream mine to be but with some 13" wellers or ats cups lowered 60mm.

btw yours is amazing


ps. the exhuast is just a tip so the car sounds and performs like a standard car but im wanting a nice 3inch single backbox, but thanks for your opinions as i like to hear what other people think
