Right, well i brought my car (vr acclaim) for $1500 nothing wrong with it untill i got it and crashed it the first day, but after another $800 ive got it back again. and was wondering what kind of mod's can i do to it, that wont cost me to much money. i get my p's in likke a month and wanted to start working on it myself, so i can learn as much as possible. anything to do with the visual side (inside and out) any suggestions will be apreciated =D

hey mate just a heads up. if you write in other peoples threads you will get given alot of sh!t from people on the site. click on this link--->> VR - VS Holden Commodore (1993 - 1997) - Just Commodores and up the top of the threads there is a button that says new thread, ask there- try using the search bar first though because if you make a post that is already up people will also give you hell. apart from that the guys here are very useful and know just about everything you need to know. i love them

It's Moe, what can you expect dude.. They are fairly dodgy over there... Haha. Everyone hates Moe.
Why didnt you take it to the shops around Morwell?
What was the shops name so I stay away from them?

VR 5.0 ltr Ute
LOL, There is only one mechanic that I will let near my ute, only cause I have used him before, and he does good work, and doesn't tell you lies to get more money, straight forward. For example I took a car in to him to get the timing checked and he said alright, checked it, he said yeh timings right but needs the injectors cleaned, asked how much I owed him and he told me not to worry. So yeh, I have seen some shocking mech's but there are some really good one's out there.
