    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    Re: My new iron steed

    I find those to be Marmite cars. You either love them or you hate them. I like them in black, not quite such a girly car in that colour.

    I'm still waiting the "HG failed" thread in years to come though

    That looks sexy in black, just keep it clean. You will be waiting awhile to go topless though

    Hope it doesn't let you down.
