You crack me up Dave. If Tania knew what we get up to here she would have a baby. I had my DRZ400 here on the road for three years without a registration plate!

Full set of pics here. You might have to spend 15 minutes at the mag stand to read the text.

You reckon? I had sneaky thoughts of having them painted on properly with the repair!
The car needs something....I specified the rocker delete (too much chrome for a hotrod) and the front and rear rubber and chrome strips delete but I think it needs a bit more detail on it. Going to try a PORSCHE script down the side and approx 20mm body stripes around the front and rear bumpers to simulate the rubber strips - RS lightweight style.
The steel front bumper is going to be fitted this time round and that is a non S type so no lip but with Fog light holes so that will give it a bit more detail too.

yep definitely Porsche script, in black the standard choice but I wouldn't mind seeing a digital mock up of it also in Riviera blue. This would be a reverse of the traditional blue/orange highlights if you know what I mean

Bought the Wildtrak new beginning of last year from the local Ford Dealer. Been very impressed with it. Better than a Hilux IMO and that's saying something. Ford are really in their stride now with the new Raptor (have a friend with one of these on order), GT350 Mustang, Focus RS and Ford GT. Our MY2017 Focus is on the water and lands late Jan. Really looking forward to trying that car after reading so much about it. Hope it's not a disappointment. I'll give my honest opinion here when I've had some seat time...
