    Default Just saying Hi to all. New owner of a..

    Just a bought my first EVER holden and obviously my 1st Commodore.

    My Car: 2005 Black VZ Lumina 3.6lt Auto 1 owner
    Kilometres 80,000 ( full holden service history in books)
    Illegal black tint

    I rekon I got a good deal as it was my Father inlaws and I negotiated from $13,000 to $10,000.

    My plans are to debadge it,remove the rear shopping trolley spoiler, lower it a cple of inches and for now the lumina mags are being painted black until I purchase a larger set of rims. Is there any issues with wheels 18 inches or higher? Is there any great commodore mechanics to increase a bit of power? I have been told D&T but as I stated this is my 1st commodore so any local advice would be great.

    You get what you pay for. I would recommend D&T. You want quality you have to pay for it.
