As Rhett said, yes that is my car.

On the topic of the number plate surrounds, I was not happy with the ones Bayford supplied. They mounted the number plate directly to the bumper despite me telling them not to fit the plates. I would have been happier with the big plastic mount as that at least uses the standard mount points in the bumper. I had Lakin plate mounts ready to go.
Thats a shame about the fitment, were you able to resolve it with them? I know it has happened to a couple of users now

Yes. It has. :frusty:

I didn't worry about it, once the Lakin's are fitted the bonus holes are invisible.

Out of sight, out of mind - wasn't going to risk potential colour matching issues if I pushed for repair/replacement of the bumpers.

If you had your heart set on Sto N Sho or Craig's front brackets it would be a different matter.

That sucks. Unfortunately you are not the only one I've heard of with that problem from Bayford.

Bayford also fitted mine on the bumper even though I told them not to. What's even worse was that their screws had gone into the lower grille, so taking that mofo out was a lot harder than expected...

Wow, we were probably there about similar times - did you see a whole bunch of BMW M cars? :)

By the look of the Pie shop, its a popular spot with a whole bunch of car clubs... and judging by the cops around, they know it too!
No... just to be clear this was yesterday (i.e Monday) not on the wknd. Just incase you are thinking about the weekend.

Ahh, my bad- yes I read Sunday :)

On topic - just saw a Race Red pull into some business car park in Macquarie Park as I was driving through - don't think he even saw me as he drove right past me in a side street haha

I hope you guys are making complaints to Bayford because its not good enough. My dealer did everything I asked, they even fitted my exhaust before delivery at no charge. Simple requests around number plates arent hard to action, it just shows they dont give a s1ht.

Spotted a zebra :lol:

Looked clean, but I don't know if the stripes work - to the bottom at the back but not at the front, and very stark against the black.
Not my taste.

Looks stunning, although the stripes would have been better going all the way down at the front.

Maybe it belongs to a Collingwood supporter :)

I'm getting my GT in black, and going with silver stripes I think. I think white is a wee bit too stark. And probably will stop at the spoiler, not all the way down past the GT badge and lower....

Spotted this Race Red GT driving along with a stock exhaust... Fought through traffic to catch up to him and managed to pull in front right before a tunnel...

Gave him a quick insight into what a Borla S-Type sounds like :)
