    didnt realise you could put that much of the HSV body kit on a berlina, makes sense though.
    Good work, but wont that attract a lot of attention from Police with your "P" on it?

    Looks amazing mate. i'd hate to think how many cops down in vic would pull you over. I get pulled over enough in my calais with quad pipes just to check if its a 6 or an 8 lol

    thanks for the comments!

    as for more pics did you see the slide show from photo bucket! Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket i will update it soon with better pics as half the images resized them selfs

    the springs are all SSSL models, both the side skirts at the back are acutaly lower then 10cm above the ground, but u only notice it if u like really get down from a far on any side & view the car, pasted the qld transport road stop & defected car thingo fine

    as for cars upgrades! OTR intake on its way, ive upgraded the rear mufflers to those ebay autotechna 3 inch quad tip stainless systems its ok! but i am getting the full hurricane 2 1/2 or 2 1/4 system in stainless soon, as the middle section of my exhaust is a stock system but it has some damage to its middle mufflers

    as for the cops well not too bad so far been pulled over 4 times in owning the car bout 7 months now done almost 20,000 km in it it actualy took just over 8,000 km before i first got pulled over! but yeah each time got pulled up bit hassled lol once in surfers got pulled up for like 30mins & a big talk to bout this & that, then told its a nice car have a good night LOL

    the 3rd time was pulled into the defected cars stops by qld transport & i got the all clear! they even commented that they liked the rear Green P plates, its a Decal sticker with the out side shaped like a transformer badge!

    the 4th time i got pulled over same place as the 3rd just a silly highway petrol car, fairly silly cop too! at first didnt beleave me the bonnent is stock just with a painted surface! then he raved on bout im not allowed to drive V8's or high performance cars & i clearly said nicely im over 25 & on green P's & im allowed to drive V8's but i already told u its only a V6 engine & then i got out to open the bonnet to show this to him but still the silly guy had to still ring in to his station to confirm check below LOL
