Just had a read through your thread Smithy!  :notworthy:

Some great mods which complement your car nicely. Keep it up. 

Oh and loving that stack on the caddy.

Id perhaps change the caps to somthing more unique. I know and understand you dont want to pretend to be somthing their not. And Calibre wheels look similar but are easilt distinguashable that there not BBS. My friend had smiley face centre caps  :P

How did you find the DAS6 - is it easy for a beginners to use and how did you fine the megs 105 - says it has deep cutting power (again, is it suitable for a novice?)

Thanks
