87 vl
hey this is my vl,sorry photos are from my phone, mods include series 2 rb30 from skyline,roller rockers, extractors, 2 and 1/2 in exhaust w/cannon, dropped on its guts due to a mix with springs and angle grinder, k&n pod, peformance plugs and leads, advanced timing belt, minispooled, 4" tacho, bonnet scoop with home made holden emblem i think thats it... i need some mags, i was thinking vz calis rims they look sick, needs new paint job but going with a 2 tone phantom purple and silver bottom... waddya think for a first car? ive had it 2 years but only just started adding things

No offence, Not having a go at you or nothing. ditch the bonnet scoop, Plates on the driver side for... Looking like you have an intercooler hiding there? also leaning to the back right? cut your springs wrong? and the cannon exhaust, was it really necasary. :P
Looks nice man, just i wouldnt of gone crazy low. Bet it goes though. Yeh the vz calais rims look nice but i bet they would be a lil pricey.
Cheers
Mat

scoop is personal preference, not everyone is gunna like it but i do, car is on uneven ground and i was prob leaning when i took the photo, plate is off to side because in 6 months there will be an intercooler there and for 4 vz calis rims + tyres is $1599... i done my homework on that one

Don't get rims, get yourself some springs and shocks. Fix the trim on your front bumper..
Tint your taillights and do your center garnish gloss black.
Blacken up your wiper arms.
I'd do alot more to looks.. But I'm not sure how your budget is for things like painting your mirrors, and your window surrounds black.

nice car mate
i agree with bextor84 though
you're better off trying to smarten her up a little before you go the rims cos she looks a bit worn. just buy some chasers for a couple hundred bucks and spend the rest on getting her to look new again

i have to agree with bex too. tidy her up a little first then fork out for the mags. i don't mind the scoop either. it's different but not overboard. not bad. if you want a rough idea of how the two tone looks check out my pics.

thats why i dont want to smarten it up coz i only use it as a daily driver and burnouts, it has too many body problems to fix it up i want to find a wagon in good nic and doo that up instead
