...any of you got a standard car?

ie:

wheels, exhaust, bodywork, brakes, engine?

Stereo upgrades (small ones) I'll let by...

anyone?

 

[racingsnake2]

not much chance off finding many off them mine fails in all areas guess you have car tinted now whats it look like on your car then have to have a look next time i pass holmfirth or i should be at well lane at rolling rd day

 

[astraderv]

Nope. It will be SERIOUSLY non-standard by the summer.
I like the subtle touches though - moderate drop, clear side repeaters, nice exhaust etc

 

[Vectra Dave]

The thing with cars like these is when a standard component fails, not many people consider getting a standard replacement. Exhausts for example.
My standard pipe was knackered. Kwik-Fit etc all wanted silly money for standard stuff. the best std stuff I could get was from Dingbro for about £160. I got a Janspeed for £180.
It often doesnt make economical sense to keep cars standard, and most people see the death of std parts as an excuse to modify.
