well thats what i think sir,im sure grump put flower all time into it and bought it like that, when someone asks for comments they have to take the good and the bad :?[/quote]

Thats funny as in weird because when I looked at Grahams car it had nothing like that done to it, maybe frank the wank can explain this strange event to me.

When you have Grump's abilities, then and only then can you make a comment like that.

Job well done Graham!!! Unk would be proud of ya!

And what has Frank the Wank done?

Frank walked in and made about 5 posts, all of which showed what a total c0ckjob he is.

Now Frank - why don't you hop on back across to www.notalentloserwannabes.com and find yourself another hero to worship.

Wow this guy takes the cake!!! Sir you astound me. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, a post along the lines of "not to my taste" would be sufficient.... Could the threat be edited to omit the entries relating to 'Frank'

Graham, congratulations on the brilliant work you have done to the interior of your car. Its a real credit to you that you've created a custom interior that looks signifigantly better than you found it. Again well done you have great taste and i'm amazed by the quality of the work.

I really like the mirrors too, nice and subtle. As a matter of interest where did they come from?

I agree, everyone is entitled their opinion it's just that Frank's hasn't been very diplomatic.

Lets stick on topic and not turn this into a witch hunt.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

just to clarify a couple of things,The basics of the interior was done when i purchased the car. I designed and built the console and had it upholstered by the guy i bought the car from, I also finished the rest of the interior as it was fairly intidy in places. The style bar was basically there, but removed it and added more stiffening and redesigned the mounting points. the steering wheel I made myself. I dare say FranktheTank is a young guy that works where I'm doing a contract at the moment. I recognise the attitude. he is the type of person that ascibes to the gay hairdressers syndrom. the whole theme of the car is something I am doing ,not something that someone else has done. maybe he just dosen't like being showen up by an old guy

Late to the party, but all of the haters can simmer down.

I saw this work of art at the last QLD dodgy day, and I thought I wouldn't be impressed, but I was.

It's a great combination of modern design (reminiscent of the Veyron in colour scheme), and attention to detail.

I think the car has turned out very well. Whilst some might prefer a more restrained interior that is still very much in vogue- just look at some of the performance Fords and Holdens. Grump obviously knows about processes and techniques. The seats are very stylish and presumably trimmed locally. Even more impressive when the owner can and does some of the work himself.

In the real word, you either praise or criticise constructively, because negative criticism is just you being an a**hole. What does it matter wether he did it all himself, or bought it like that? You honestly cant say it looks like sh*t because it doesnt. If you dont like something from it thats your opinion, theres no need to prove to everyone on the forum how stupid you are.

Now you just seem to be a loser that has created an account just to offend. You better hope so because after that comment no one is going to take you seriously, nor will anyone ever help you.
