RedM Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I give her my love and she just breaks my heart.Maybe one day li'l darlin' i'll be able to give you what you deserve.Sniff........ Same here. She is the best I've ever had but she's really out of my league. I'm going for a plain jane next. It'll break my heart at first but I could do without her getting unwanted attention, having to buy the finest drinks, shoes and clothes and having to take care of her every ache, pain and sniffle at expensive doctors. Besides, she ain't getting any younger either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfpro Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 If it was the Supe at SSI then it is mine.. You are luckier than me as I havnt been able to get up to see the work started (work is super busy at this time of year). As you said it has the Brembo 6 piston monoblock calipers which are awesome. The only downside of putting together a nice big list of parts is it takes ages to fit them all! Its like Christmas come a week early.

Thanks. I saw your motor when I was dropping mine in. Whifbitz front bumper? I am putting the same on on mine. I think it is the most subtle (similar in style to the original but deeper though not over the top like some others). Hope yours gets back on the road soon. Bad hybrids I hear!
