Thanks mate, i dont think it looks 'ricey' as its still a little bit hidden.
Its actually a pretty big cooler, goes to probably just above the top of the bottom grill. Doesnt lag much either. On a standard tune they do abit.

Far from ricey haha, pull out one headlight and have it dropping below the front bar and maybe. Other than that it looks great.

THIS.

DJM, do you happen to have ever tried putting and MTB in the back with the seats folded down? Ive been considering an XR5 as my next car but this will be a big selling point. Front wheels removed we fitted 2 in the back of my mates barina, but it was a tight fit, the falcon I can only fit one with the back seats down and the front wheel off

VERY nice XR5 (sorry ST) by the way Love the white LV's!

Hey mate, what size are the tyres on the factory 18" wheels? I'm after a set, as I'm finding the factory 16" wheels on my car make the car sit far too low with the eibach springs.
