I love that coffee table! I saw one at Harvey Norman that was similar but the engine was just a ceramic mock up or something.

I've always wanted an XY front-end BBQ. I reck they are awesome, especially when the lights are hooked up as well.

Whos wearing the pants in the relationship? lol She asks how much it costs just say you got it cheap and lie my man. Think bout all the money the GFs spend on shoes and clothes and use this to back up your argument unless she isnt like that then your screwed lol

I remember seeing 1 of the Formula 1 drivers had what was left of his car in his lounge, just like what you described, it looked tremendous.

I dont think they are fibreglass. I know the bumpers are steel. Who would pay $2700 for a fibreglass *** end of an XW?

sexy sexy stuff.

i'd imagine they wouldnt grab a good XW / XY and cut the *** off it. they'd use a writeoff im sure.

they may also be pieced together with rare-spares rust replacement sections, or taiwanese copy panels

Yeah they are steel panels, I had a good ol yarn to the guy who makes them one day. A lot of work goes into making them.
