Main goal now is to tidy up engine bay and upgrade brakes/rims. After that I may look at some more performance/interior modifications.

I would like to make a personal thank you to Simon at Xtreme Ford Tuning for his great work on my car, me being demanding I took my car for a tune as early as 750km on the clock and after every minor mod(as bits and peices were being released for fg). Doing a total of 5 tunes with Simon, every single time he hasnt failed to please me and with the final tune making my car one feirce street car.

Dom from Presteige Exhaust for all his work on my exhaust system, originally having the prototype X-Force 4" system we ended up changing the rear section and CAT. Great quality work and products!

Dom from Audio Image for the great work on my audio setup, I had a few bad experiances with others before seeing Dom and by far Dom has the highest quality of service and installations by far compared to other installations I have seen.

Kev from Process West for his great products, excellent service and after service. He will strive his best to keep you happy!

nice car... lotsa mods!!!! de badging and adding the bonnet bulge FTW....

Very unique set up mate... with plenty of go to back it up.

You are truly car enthusiast Kice.I like the color

awesome ftw octane all the way.......

Has the drivers door been resprayed??????

If only it had ARGENTS though

Love the exhaust Kice, it really toughen's up the whole car IMO.

Plenty of show with some good go to match

yes mate, still disappointed about the door. after 3 resprays already.

have paint protection... it had a minor dent in it, so they tried to push it out and ended up cracking the paint.. so respray after respray still not happy with it.

I am going to have another complaint to ford.... they said that was the best they could match it... yet when I got the bonnet done a panal beater managed to get it first go!

since then I noticed imperfections of the paintwork anyway so this time im gonna ask if I choose who does the paintwork.

I had some issues with the front and rear bar.....Gave my dealer a quote to repair it....they wrote a cheque and I took it to my panel beater to paint......He did a top job...you know when you paint plastic the the colour is always different...he managed to get it real close anyway alot closer then it left the factory .....Hope it works out well.....
