It is on enterprise road, just off the dual carrageway going to bangor, just before rathgael roundabout.

They have some nice wheels in stock but will basically order anything in for you.
Im getting some Kei Racing Force 10's in black ordered in and also some Rota sub zeros so we can compare

Seems to have good prices also. 18" Force 10's with tyres, fitments, locking nuts for £810

The Bluefin does an average of 4mpg better I think it is, but personally didn't gain much in consumption thanks to a certain induction kit

Hey Sam

Wondered where you had got to, your cars looking very well mate!

I do have the stripes lying in the car but now i dont think im gonna fit them, i love the nice clean look of the bonnet without them, once i get the chrome grille and chrome bumper inserts il know better i think

thats the thoughts this hour, come back tomorrow and they will probably be going on!
