[big wall]

hey mate i got the same car as that but with out the rear wing. i think they look way better with out the wing but thats just me. im getting quads put on mine next week hopefully thought u may be interested to no that i got quoted for quads is around $425 with tips and all... im hoping to get rims within the next month or so.

[Pickle']

hey mate.. haha yeah i dont really like the wing was thinking of taking it off.. but the missus wont let me lol she has paid half the car so i really cant complain and it will be hers when she gets her licence anyway so im not all to fussed about it ATM.. where did you get quoted from is that fitted? is it second hand or new?

[TinSnips]

swap it for a lip spoiler and time how long it takes here to notice!

[Pickle']

lol haha nah she will notice my bbrother changed the tail lights on his xr6 on the weekend and she noticed when we went around his place the other night.. first time she'd seen the car since... and its not even her car lol.. i dont really like the lip ones much.. but it would be better then the woeful thing i have at the moment haha.. also they only have 2 bolts to secure rather then the 4 of the big spoiler dont they? therefor i would have 2 ugly holes lol

There is one style (thinking senator - but check it) that uses 4 bolts and covers the holes perfectly. Food for thought

[RUF-60L]

yes the senator one uses 4

[Pickle']

yeah i think you might be right with the senator.. ill see how i go but id really much rather piss it off completely.. i was thinking to just take the wing off and see if she noticees it missing... like you said lol..

[TinSnips]

pffff.. what's the worst that could possibly happen.. a night on the couch? worth it.

[Pickle']

haha.. possibly a boot full of water..

he mate.. just wondering if you would know whether the 'lion' badge off the omega grille would fit the ss grille wanting to buy the ss grille but the guy has painted it black.. (not a fan)

[TinSnips]

meh.. couple of cheap plugs will fix that short term.

he mate.. just wondering if you would know whether the 'lion' badge off the omega grille would fit the ss grille wanting to buy the ss grille but the guy has painted it black.. (not a fan)

not sure mate. Could always grab it and paint it white? hmmmmm... could look good.

Failing that, you can buy new grille badges on ebay for not much. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/GRILLE-BADGE-...7#ht_883wt_907

Got pics of the grille up, Windows should be tinted within the week . Then scratch hopefully next week or the week after.

Then will be looking at a stubby aerial and the senator lip whenever i can.

[TinSnips]

The grille came up really nice mate. Good job!

[B-roca]

Good job Pickles, looks nice, definetly like than ss grille better than the omega one.
Only thing i'm not too convinved on it the P Plate on the bonnet, you just slap it on randomly or is it stratigically placed there ?

[Pickle']

Haha gotta keep moving them or they stick, not fun. Get to lose them in November

[B-roca]

Haha good on ya mate, I get my full in October. Altough I don't have to stick P stickers on my car either

[Pickle']

yeah can't wait. How long do you have to hold your P's over there, are they the same? Well done BTW, Do you have any pics of your car?

[B-roca]

yeah can't wait. How long do you have to hold your P's over there, are they the same? Well done BTW, Do you have any pics of your car?

Well over here is called a Restricted license and it means we can drive without a supervisor passengers but not between the hours of 10pm and 5am. We have to hold our restricted license for 18months or only 12months if you take a defensive driving course. There is no limit on what cars we can drive on our restricted, however the insurance companies will screw you over or just stragiht up refuse insurance, that means that unlike Australia we don't have very many restricted licnse holders driving cars with engines any bigger than 2 litres.

[Pickle']

That sounds alot better then what we have going on here really. Drivers with little experience don't need powerful cars anyway really. Nothing wrong with a Cavalier, Yeah Haha they reason i didnt buy an SV6 over this was the insurance was through the roof, Gotta wait for 25 and it should drop alot, but until then ill deal with it.

Is that a company car? it looks it :P but if so how are you allowed to drive it. Bit of fun to drive after the Cavalier?
