Both great projects!!

no, i will not transplant the back of a saloon. i don't like the back of a nexia! too bolt, and too big rear taillights!
i will make an other back, but don't now what i will take....
you don't like the mirrors, sunstrip and wiper?! well, different tasts

i like it alot.

Nope not that one, well could be. But I think I know which one JK100RSA is on about as I live in Bradford in Yorkshire and I have seen it driving about. It is that mistral grey colour and it has a Nexia rear end on it.

Certainly different.

no neede too!! drive with kph is better than mph, couse with mph i drive faster than normal.
50 mph = +/- 110 kph, that's what the gatso's likes...

NOT FOR ME!!!!
