    Default my uni ride

    got 2 more years left of uni so no big spending untill im done, so here is my VP that has been getting me through. ive had it the entire time ive been at uni so the mods ive done have been cheap and done by me and mates when possible. just got the group A bar for cheap but its a vn one so it took some grinding and adjusting to get it to fit without gaps.

    VP V6, manual, removed belmouth from air intake (noticable difference), lowered, calais rims (cheap off uncle), windows tinted so dark it has its own gravitational pull (I was a tinter befor uni) seat covers and a sports steering wheel. so there ya have it. not the most expensive car but good enough that i dont feel embarressed when rocking up to uni.

    yeah the pedals are gone...just the standard rubber ones there now, and the steer wheel ive had since i was 20 and it has been in all my cars as i cant afford another good quality one at the moment. so the red is staying for a while, well least till the end of uni.

    got defected by a motorcycle cop (wanker), so had to take tint off, put old (bus size) original steering wheel back on, get new tyres and degrease the shit out of the engine to make it look clean as the cop could magically see through my bonnet to say i have engine oil leaks everywhere!

    anyways here is the beast looking not so good during the inspection

    never fear, the guy was really good and understood my situation and cleared me even though it cost $150 to get it inspected, so now i have him back to being defectable again

    I think you should spray the wheel black.
