**plAythiNG** · 15-09-2006, 04:27 PM

haha thanks, i will get mroe pix soon, umm yea i had it for jsut voer a year now, wen i got my p's last year, my dad gave it to me, it was his car he used to use, umm well how many k's, i dunno LOL, cos it reads 251K, but that stopped working a really long time ago, and yea its stock, but ti goes hard comapred to other stock vn's, i even raced my mates wrx, and beat it twice, one was from tha lights, the other was rolling. the reason why i beat it, was cos his rexxy is auto. however it is a show car with big mods in it, like he has upgraded the turbo so sum decent jap import model, all internals, but i think it still uses stock cooler, ummm and all new exhaust system but yea, cos tis auto, it sux! big time haha yea my vn is in pristine condition, cept i kinda scraped the front bumper ona wall, exrremely minor damages, i will post a pic of that later, ummm wat have i doen to it, i put in a basic system in it, 16's, and new tyres, umm and i ordered sum xenon light ubbls for it, was gonna get them clear tail lights, but i reckon it will look crap @ nighttime, esepcailly when all u see da the bulbs, since their not LED's, it will turn out crap, ummm yea and i just stick penitum 4 comptuer stickers on it haha, i do it cos it loosk cool and simple, like i liek to be unique in the stuff i do, do i put a pentium 4 sticker under door ahndle on driver door, and put a pentium D sticker on rear (right)

**plAythiNG** · 15-09-2006, 04:36 PM

**plAythiNG** · 15-09-2006, 04:37 PM

i got a question, u reckon i should put clear tails on, and can sum1 gimme a pic of wat they look @ night time, with lights and brake lights on also?

JD · 15-09-2006, 06:32 PM

i reckon at least replace those tail lights they bring the car down a little being faded at the top.

other than that good work!

**89vncommy** · 15-09-2006, 08:11 PM

Nice ride... Colour code those bumpers, and don't get clear lights... If you are going to change the lights, get the ones with the clear indicator and reverse light and the rest are red... It would look hot on you car.. You can get em off ebay ... Just can't find the link at the moment...

**1991_Vn2nV** · 15-09-2006, 08:14 PM

Nah just go with the normal lights man, they suit the red VN's!

Paint that window trim black too!

nice VN mate

I don't think there are any on eBay at the moment, but they do come up very often. They would look good

Nice clean looking car you've got there!

I would just replace performance with clear indicators.....

VP lexcen lights may look similar to these, but the design shape is different...

**plAythiNG** · 16-09-2006, 11:31 AM

i think i am gonna laeve the headlgiht protectors and mudflaps on it, as my dad will prolyl not like it, and also i bielibe it wont; have much differenc, since the car is not lowered at all. umm yes i really like those tail lights from ebay where the indiicator is just clear, as it really highlights teh white, since the whole light panel is not white, thank heaps guys (and maybe chicks). i will roder it enxt week, and em n my dad will put them on, so stay tuend for upcoming pix

**plAythiNG** · 16-09-2006, 11:35 AM

umm, with the bumpers, i reall like the rear look of the vn, lookssolid, and that bit of grey at teh rear, makes it look kinda tough IMO for a stock car, however at teh front, is where i truly beleiove tock VN's look shit,. looking at i from dead stright, its so roudned and poofter looking, i dun like it, and i was thinnig of getting just a front bar for it, nothing else, ido not want side skirts / rear bar. do u reckon that woukld look negood, but if i was doing this, i dunno wat colour 2 have the bumper, as i like the look of the grey bumper at the rear, but then that would look off if i had a red front abr at the front, and jsut the rear was grey, it would look like i got aprts from wreckers!

**89vncommy** · 17-09-2006, 01:22 PM

Be careful with just puttin on a front bumper with no skirts.. You don't want
to look like Mr Plow ...

If it were me, I would colour code them, as I think it makes the car look a lot
better... But that is just IMO ...

Were you down at Brighton today ... I saw a car just like yours... I know they
are a dime a dozen, but it even had the fade in the same spot on the lights...
Didn't see if it had the same rims tho ...

**plAythiNG** · 17-09-2006, 01:28 PM

nah mate, i been home all morning

**greenfoam** · 17-09-2006, 03:11 PM

It looks mint man, leave it just how it is

. Sometimes a stock car just looks right and this is one of them, love the grey bumpers, stock lights, mudflaps are allways ace. All I could think off is twin 2.25 inch exhaust pipes out the back and it would be perfect

**plAythiNG** · 18-09-2006, 10:50 AM

hmm, i wouldn't mine getting twin pipes, but i jsut got this tip a couple months ago, so i really can't waste my money, also alst night i lost almost 300 on blackjack, i lsot it all, and then won it all back and then some!, and then lsot it all at tha end, not happpy, so i am going back in about 15 mintues,, to win back what i lost!

**PaRaDoX** · 18-09-2006, 02:01 PM

looks nice, you should paint your bumper black tho, seen it done looks GOOD!, much better than faded grey, also some new springs couldnt hurt (my opinion)
but other than that looks like a nice car

**holden007** · 18-09-2006, 02:07 PM

Nice Car, colour coding the bars is good, but try some Armour All or Kitten and blacken them more, I seen gloss black (painted) and it looked pretty nice.

**Emackulation** · 18-09-2006, 02:16 PM

Debadge the boot and it will look nice and clean

**F&B** · 19-09-2006, 02:16 PM

hey bloke i too have a stock as a rock red VN paint is clean if not as clean as urs. i tinted the windows and put some BBS wheels on it and it looks a shitload better than without it. ill post some pics when i go home and clean my car but after tininting mine dark as im stoked it changed the look of the car beyond belief and its as cheap as. aside from that nice tidy vn pretty hard to find these days
