went to my local car modders yesterday (to have a repair done to my stainless system), and saw a Rolls Royce Silver Shadow part way through some heavy mods.
It had a two tone color scheme, huge 18" alloys, & it was dropped on the floor with a fast air suspension kit, de-chromed & looking pretty good.
When I asked about it, aparently they are building it for Mike Skinner from "The Streets"............good to see a a new pop star not going for the normal run of the mill choice.

Hats off to mister Skinner. Any chance of blagging some sneaky photos? How about slipping a couple of RR stickers under his wiper?

Mike Skinner is a top bloke imo, his music is different, his attitude is different and it seems his taste in cars is also different.

Stuyizz told me about last time I saw him a few months ago. Sounds like it could, I seem to remember Stuyizz saying something about suicide doors and airbags. We were in a pub, so most of the conversation got erased by beer ;D

range rover front lights?
yeah that mike skinner dude seems to talk abit of sense even though his music seems a bit chavvy like (polo shirts baseball caps and stuff) at least he hasnt gone the way of the gangsta style stuff where they cant even pronounce "ask" anymore. someone tell those inbreds to stop saying "aks"
old pimped rolls royces are cool. new ones arent....

Gangsta Rap isn't that bad. NWA rules so hard I cry. Just a couple of curse word holes ruining it.

Watch a doco by war artist Geoge Gittoes ,called"sound track to a war" .It follows young grunts in Iraq and their music ,they make up hip hop routines in the battle feild!!. Then wait for a month or so for his second Doco,due out soon about the fortunes of the same soldiers when they return to battlegrounds of Miami..where one was murdered one day after arriving home The docos give a whole new outlook to the Rap/hip hop scene without the bullshite handed to fans by the music promo people.

Many years ago I changed my driving style to cope with rising fuel prices; I have now reached the stage where I am contemplating keeping my eyes shut in order to lower wind resistance.
