Very nice looking ute mate, hurry up and get those 20's on :-)

[KARTAL]

nice ute mate.. love the front lip?
how much did it end up setting you back? installation?
adem

[metalpledge]

haha yeah bro love it makes the mouth look bigger um cost me about $230 and i put it in myself took about half an hour to an hour if you have the tools

[metalpledge]

mod update only minor though hah
mad the front holden badge black think it goes very nice with the lip spoiler and it saved me from going and getting a chev grill for a sv6 haha.

pics:

[tomholzy]

i reckon take the top lip (under the number plate) of the lip spoiler off

[metalpledge]

just and update on my ute i got some tint done yesterday i got 5% on the back and 15% on sides cost me $165 from mr cool tinting in penrith area i recommend him did a excellent job next is exhaust and then save for rims .
And just one thing ive noticed lately with the difference of the ss and sv6 utes the ss has the brake light up the top of the back window and the sv6 doesnt seems abit strange but yeah ,heres some pics ,

[dakman]

i thought being on your p's you cant drive any thing over 200kw. and the sidi's being 210kw thought it would be illegal and loss of lisence if caught?

[metalpledge]

just a few more photo's

and your aloud to drive the sidi sv6 on p plates dakman i checked it out

[dakman]

really. so whats the go with the 200kw rule then?

[brute898]

Where did you get the spoiler for the front lip from? It looks really good.

[tomholzy]

Holden dealers, ebay, , ,

[metalpledge]

yeah i dont know what the go is cause i thought i might not be able to drive it but i rang up and told it was all okay and i havent had any problems from the guys in blue so yeah.

& brute898 i got the lip spoiler from my local holden dealer for about $250 + fitted it myself very easy .

[tjoint]

metalpledge, nice ute, nice mods so far
what type of wheel are you looking for (black rims would suit ) and if you are looking to buy holden stuff then go to oz car parts smithfield, victoria st,( thats where i go and its a big saving over heartland for the same gear.) hey you should come on the holden run this weekend out to picton carts..check out the nsw general thread.....oh yeah ive got some black 18's if your keen (goin cheap $700ono) didnt suit mine and only 2months old..any way great ride..

[EnFoRcEr_001]

Nice ride i really like the red and especially that hardtop. Tint looks mint

really. so whats the go with the 200kw rule then?

hey darkman yeh thats the general rule in Victoria im pretty sure cause they go by power to weight i dont think we have that rule here in NSW. Rules arnt exactly clear in NSW only rules i know of are no 8's, F/I or high performance 6's which here the RTA deem it high performance or not.

i hope in those pics they are only seat cover's, they look horrid compared to standard sv6 seats! and not a fan of the hardlid you got, they look so bulky and thick at the back where the lock is (and they're heavy to lift up, well the one i seen was), prefer the few i've seen running around lately with a nice flat slimline one, with the release on the central locking of the key. the vz ss thunder i used to have with those buldges on the hardlid made for some bad blindspots, and personally the ve already has enough of them to share!

otherwise, like the rest of it, have seriously considered that cover for the front bar on my sv6, but haven't done it yet.

[SV6SidiUTE]

ahhhh. but the twin hump tonneau cover is what what makes me smile every time i walk past the ute. yes it does look bulky but that is the whole point. looks much much more agressive, and it ain't so hard to lift either, it has two arms that help you with that .. it pretty much lifts by itself once you push it up. love the ute matey, i've got a same one in black.. i'llpost a few pics of it tonight....

[metalpledge]

thats exactly why i got the hump lid love thebulky look of it goes with the whole ve look i rekon
but anyway here is two new pics i put the sidi badge down the bottom on right of the honeycomb but its just till i get some sv6 badges cause i think they will look better anything just let me know what you think please oh and i too off the two sides of the lip spoiler and left the center think it looks much nicer

[zaidan69]

i rekon some black number plates with white writing would look tops with the lip u got goin.. but damn nice car for a p plater wish i was that luky

[metalpledge]

heres just some more pictures i took today after a wash sidi motor going along strong

[1989mitty]

Nice man that Front lip looks good . Needs some big wheels but

[metalpledge]

and yet again more pictures with sv6 badge at the front now looks alot better .




back badges off looks nicer now

[Super Coach]

hey mate very nice car, well done. just quick question how do you go reading the speedo and rev's during the day. as i notice its white and grey, is it hard to see at times? pitty they dont colour code them anymore. Any better at night?

[jono0309]

The grey is fine. they wouldnt put it in the car if it was unreadable.
