That'll look awesome once it's all painted and done! Have you thought about getting the GTO bonnet for it?

I think you need a VX garnish and some new tail lights asap man

Then rims and she will look hot as

Thanks all. Yea i wouldnt mind a Monaro bonnet saw a genuine metal one on ebay for around $900 i think it was. cant remember. Will definately go metal and not fibreglass.

Im gonna wait and see what it looks like all painted b4 workin out the rear lights. Not sure to keep the VT Calais, go VX Calais or painted VT garnish with Black Monaro lights...

And rims, was looking at 19"s but decided to stick with 18's due to the ammount of km's i do and the cost of tyres + comfort. Did have VYSS but thier scratched and buckled so want new ones Cant decide between VZ CV8, CV8R or GTO. Anyone have any other suggestions?

Here is a crap edit with CV8. Would look pretty good IRL i think. Colours all wrong in the pic. Should be about the same as the Pic with the VYSS's in the first post
