    or anything to make my VE look good
    It's a VE. It already looks good.

    Back on topic:
    Lower it. (Just a bit-Not dumped)
    SS Grille
    SSV Tail-Lights
    20 Inch Rims (Not chrome-Just because) Can't go wrong with Advanti Tourers or Supersports
    Bee sting antenna
    Tinted Windows

    Well smartass, it has only 1 month since ive been using this forum, and al those posts were put up when i didnt know how to use this forum. Do you really have to be a ######## about it? This guy has been on the forum for more then a year so im sure he would be able to know how to use it, but then again i did answer his questions best i could. As for your, your just being a helpless little shit.

    its a custom system on the car. friend of mine works for a exhaust shop and we played around with sounds. its sounds close to xforce but with a little deeper note. didnt want it to drone.

    Just to give you a couple more ideas that havent been mentioned here.
    Look at SSV, Calais V, Caprice Models, and take some inspiration from there.

    Some Chrome Examples : Chrome surround exterior door handles, chrome window surrounds, chrome boot lid appliqué.

    Some Interior Examples : VE Colour LCD HVAC / Radio, Triple LCD Cluster (Or upgraded cluster), painted / Calais V dash strips, high level interior lights (Map light models from Berlina / Calais), Footwell lamps, Centre Console / Glovebox lamp, Door trims from a higher model, etc, etc.

    Just some more ideas for you
