Always raining where I live.

Welcome to the club..Sorry I'll go one better..

Sensational... Can't recommend red in Aus because of fading but you are obviously in Europe (I'm guessing UK)

The very first i30 I ever saw was a red one....

Post by: Shambles on March 31, 2009, 21:08:42: I'm no fan of red cars, even though the missus drove a 944S Porsche in bright red when I first met her. Having said that, the i30 does look supreme in solid red.

The decal in the rear window suggests a Welsh/English connection. Maybe some family conflicts of a rugby nature? :P

Post by: Goldfish_8 on March 31, 2009, 21:54:21: You're right about the stickers on the back window, I'm English and the other half she be Welsh (South Wales), so try to avoid the rugby when it's an England v's Wales match - the Welsh contigent tends to be a heck of a lot noisier!! :rolleyes:

Post by: Hemmi on April 01, 2009, 01:05:35: Hey Goldfish_8, what do you think about the black thingy on the bumpers, I honestly dont like them, my dealer did not put one on mine, do you like it?

it was a red i30 like yours that inspired me to buy the MS body kit :cool:
here's a picture of it: http://www.internet.is/hermannh/i30/i30red.jpg

I think it looks much better without the black thing.

But thats just my honest opinion :wink:

Post by: bumpkin on April 01, 2009, 08:18:45: I have the corner protectors and I really like them, I think it breaks up the large panels of paint a bit, which to be fair is probably less required on Hemmis colour than the brighter red and vivid blue models.

Just my opinion :D

Post by: Goldfish_8 on April 01, 2009, 10:34:59: I'm with bumpkin on this, the black breaks up the large expanse of colour on the front. Also with the number of potholes appearing on UK roads these days, give the paint some protection against stone chips, on the front at least! :lol:

Anyone with the bodykit sorted out a way of fitting mudflaps? :question:

Mark

Post by: Doggie 1 on April 01, 2009, 14:15:57: Looks sensational. I like the i30 in red but I've admired Hemmi's car too ever since I first saw it, looks great.
I was at the dealership tonight trying to negotiate a deal (still going) but I don't know anywhere in Australia where I can get the MS kit. Does anyone know if it's available over here?

I'll guess North Wales

I like the black corners especially against the red
