    Default My Cheap As VL Commodore

    Hey all

    Ended up getting a really cheap VL Commodore which needs a few things done to it.



    $500

    Interior is neat and needs a guard painted and bonnet straightened up but apart from that, runs perfectly well

    yeah i still gotta rip that tape off the bumper... yeah was thinking about getting stockies... but just like mags (they are proper holden ones) and i might leave spoiler on there at the moment cause being budgetd, cant be stuffed covering up boot holes.. but all comes down to personal preference really.
