    Mate calm down, his only messing (you arse yat5ey), each to thier own taste, your car dont looke like his anyway, the colour seems darker (or is that just me) besides, its what YOU like, this day and age, you will always see someone else with the SAME car and SAME mods.
    
    Before i had my balck vtr, i never saw another BLACK vtr around here, since iv been driving around, iv seen two now ! 1 of which had mods which i INTEND to do ! so its no point mate, keep your mods, they look good. Dont be put off by DUMB ARSE comments. If you do change your car to look different to what it is now the PEOPLE who have made these comments will ONLY hink they won.
    
    KEEP EM MATE ! your car looks NICE. Better then the so called 'competition'.
