Re: my motor
Your car is absolutely gorgeous mate, Laquer Red is always a cracking colour. Will always have a soft spot for Lasers as my first Capri was a Black Laser and youll never forget your first Capri

Re: my motor
just fitted the new headlights with twin side lights. I must say they are 1000× better than the origionals

Re: my motor
So after running these new headlights for 2 weeks and getting them adjusted right I recon they are easily as good as modern car lights. Much better than the candles I had before. Highly recommend.

Hi,
Lovely car, a real credit to you.
Lacquer red seems to really suit the lines of the Capri.

Re: my motor
Fantastic Capri fella. Lovely.
Looks real good without the side trim mouldings. Did you do that yourself or was is like that already ? Thought of doing that myself but filling in holes and getting it sprayed up bit of a job but it does really show of the lines so well.
And I absolutely love the colour...well I would say that, have you checked out my capri on this section too...

Re: my motor
Yeah I did it. Tho it was lack of rubbers that forced it. Wish I hadn't had the laser stripes either but hey ho.

Re: my motor
Hi,
Still think it looks really good as it is fella.
Bet it would be a nightmare though to try to remove the stripes without messing up the paintwork.

Re: my motor
when I have the bodywork done again I will loose the stripes and holes. Until then I will leave it.
