Hey Sam,

Your car is similar to mine then, and you would say to get Twin. I really am finding it hard to decide.

I'd go for the quads. The twins look odd in my opinion. It's not what we want however. It's your choice.

Yes, sounds like it is Mark. I had a bit of trouble trying to decide but I came to the conclusion that the twin's in line with stripes looked really smart. I think the quads would be good if you needed them for rallying or anything, but I think twin's are the best for just normal use.

how long have u had ur cooper?

Go for the Quads

Better than being at Blackpool for the lights

Im kind of leaning towards the quads I think! I just seem to be favouring having the 4, Im not sure why though. I do think the twins look nice at the end of the stripes though.

Twins mate, smart, sexy and not over the top.

Plus, if you like it, and want more, then add at a later date!

Maybe I should go for twins then! I guess it makes more sense than to go for the quads only to find out I want twins.

Yeh, it was logical!

I will get some pics up but they are likely to be a while. Money this month is going towards JCW sound kit so only after that will I get to buy the twins!

Hey Mark,
Definately the twins on a CR/W with stripes (but I am a little biased....check out my gallery)
