Only if your not planning on copying it..

Haha yeah anything with dish and lots of spokes is a massive pain in the ass. High pressure cleaner and a spray on cleaner was my best mate :p

You would be pleasantly surprised about the price ;) Like i said to SCVS6, if you shop around and wait for good deals on things to pop up but your cautious on quality etc, then you can save a whole lot. + doing everything yourself saves a fortune.

Wont be much happening over the next few months as im saving for spending money for my trip to europe, but once i get back it should be all go again. Just more expensive stuff left to do ( -_-)

Yeah moneys been holding me back since ive had it but shop around and be cautious about products and it all comes together slowly. One thing with this colour is from a distance it always looks pretty clean which is always good. But next colour should be even better ;). Oh sweet, sounds good man. Sunroofs over here are over 2.5k so mine can go without i thing haha. Look forward to seing yours when its done man

Yeah I know what you mean. Mine will be going in to the panel beater in 2 weeks (spoke to him today), but he said he doesn't install sunroofs, so I decided i'm not going to worry about it. I might use the money for some new rims instead haha. If you don't mind me asking, how much did the air suspension setup cost? I'm not sure if I would get it for mine but am interested in how much it would cost (WHII and WK should be the same). Those rims look really nice on your Stato as well, I am having trouble finding rims I like. I look in the window of places that sell wheels but don't really like the ones I have seen. Do you know any good websites where I could have a look at rims? I can't wait until mine is done as well, hopefully in 3 weeks it should be done, depending how long it takes them to do.Also, I noticed that you have strobe lights! Where did you get those from. I have been wanting to get some for my cars for a while now, just for show (I know they are illegal on the road).

Ah bugger, oh well. Dont need a sunroof to look pimp ;). A bag setup the same as mine would cost someone else about $5000 depending where they source parts etc. Add "James Cloke Tubular Suspension" on facebook and have a chat to him about what you want. He can chose a kit to suit and either ship it to you, install it, or organise an installer in your area to have it done. As for rims, not sure in VIC. But only big rim place over on the east side i know is very popular and have good prices is Tempe Tyres. Have a look on their site, last i looked they had a big selection including a massive gallery of customers cars. Hope that helps.

Yeah mate come to thnk of it, I must have seen those other plates :)

Yeah probably. It can go almost as low, but he rarely drives it as low as i drive mine haha



On another note, out of curiosity entered the stato in the West Coast Commodores sound off at Alberts Cannington on Saturday. Wasnt expecting much as the subs and amp were bolted in at 3am on the friday that Motorvation started then tuned very quickly and poorly on the saturday. But pulled a 136.2db. Once i remake the box, dynamat some more and finish the install, should be able to pull a 140-145. Still took home a $250 set of alpine splits as a prize though :p haha
