Awesome car to start with.

Add to future mods, SS kit Love the idea of gun metal grey top half.
Also, need more pics in the daylight, aswell as interior pics, and pics of your door trims (even tho they aren't getting put in yet)

[doyab]

Did you make those enclosures in the rear yourself?

haha I attempted to do it myself but gave up and got GL prosound in Essendon to do it for me.. It's still not finished though.. Dropping it off Wednesday night to get finished!

So its a fully custom part, or did they follow a template? I wouldn't mind something similar.

[doyab]

yeah they are complete custom from scratch. wait till you see when its done im fair excited.

[MizzVR]

Very nice!!!!

[doyab]

dropped car off tonight should be done by atleast saturday at the latest. im excited.

[holden_4aw_lyfe]

clearly one of the best wagons ive seen on the street, the sound system sounds really good with the layout and the fibreglass moulding. The car def needs an exhaust though. Looks mean going down the street!

[Insomniacs Dream]

wow mate, looks mint.
Hope my wags looks this good when I've done a bit of work on it.
Its been sitting for quite a while now and i just cleaned it up today, hoping to get her running early in the new year and on the road. Same color as yours Manual and i think about 240k or so Kms.

[doyab]

Hey. Yeah nah ill be honest photos make look beter then it is. But thanks. Yeah i love wagons. Good luck wit yours. Do u have a my ride section?

[Insomniacs Dream]

Ha!, your being modest lol. It really is nice in comparison to most wagons you see around of this era.
Thanks for the luck, i think i might need it and nah i don't have a My Ride section yet as its not drivable and still needs a bit of attention for me to figure out what needs doing. It needs Reg and a Roadie so they are #1 priority.

I'm subscribing to your thread :P

[MizzVR]

Just got my car back from gl with my custom boot done and its disgraceful.. Boxes are uneven, they didnt carpet everything and it looks like its just been slapped together. not happy at all. don't recommend them at all. will take pics tomoro.

Haha thanks mate
Can't wait to see yours eventually.



btw im on my gfs profile atm.

[doyab]

Pics of custom install... Not happy..
You can probs see why....
Photos are a bit shit & small.. sorry..

[Insomniacs Dream]

oh mate that's a bit of a let down, you'd think that after all the time they had the car that they'd do a decent job on it. How much did it set you back?

[doyab]

cost me far too much...
all up was $2900 inc. new rockford splits which I haven't got yet as they didn't order them in early enough..
wouldn't recommend the place to anyone..
my mate bought a $4500 system from there and while the price of the components was cheap the install was sh*t

[NEDWOB]

thats not good mate i hope you can take it back to them if your not 100% happy/

[bugsy]

wags looks good mate, sucks bout the install but, def take it back

[doyab]

Well the thing is i took it bak not long after it was done. He was adiment u cant join fibreglass bullshit. Not much i can do. But atleast he is gonna the uneven tweeter mountin humps. Ahwell. Nxt is roof lining. Its on its way to falling done.
