Hi Guys

[chris_786]

Hey folks!

Have been a member on here for ages as I was looking at upgrading to a 197/200 some time ago, but decided to stick the extra wedge into my current car instead!

Just thought I'd say hello as I'm whoring it about the forums

BTW if anyone could inform me of how much a 197 diffuser usually goes for that'd be emmense, cheers.:thumbup:
