Hi all see we have the snow back lets hope my shed dose not get flooded this time when it Thurs out! Two things i need to ask you lot. I'm rebuilding a 1.6 laser with a 2.1 engine ( once i find one ). I'm thinking about putting a cci twin exhaust on it. has any one done this be for? I'm wondering how do they sound a will i lose power as a result of splitting the exhaust flow? if any one can give me some feed back that would be good. Now for my next question I'm thinking about putting 15" 7 Spock's on and panting it British racing green! Now I'm not trying to make it look like a 280 but i do like the color. I did have a 280 once & loved it. But i would of not given a laser a second look if it was the same color. Now thats the thing. Its going to take some years & money to get this car back on the road so the last thing i wont is people to walk past cos of the color. SO wot do you think? would you walk past or would you stop?

Rosso Red or Signal Orange are my favourites. 15" RS alloys look good on them all.

Don't think people will pass by becuase of a laser done in british racing green, but with twin exhausts, 15" RS 7 Spoke alloys, BR green my worry would be that it might look like a half attempt of a replica? Personally I'd do it the original colour, or something totally different that stands out, like perhaps the focus RS colour of green. No-one would walk past a capri painted in that colour!

Got to agree with Stuey there, no-one would walk past it that colour. ;D Definitely with Dave with the Rosso Red and Signal Orange Signal Orange is my all time favourite as my first Capri was that colour.

There was an "Electric Orange" ( Current focus st colour i think ) Capri featured in last years Classc Ford mag, that looked pretty cool.
