thats a bargain for 2g man looks allrite. i think rims are one of the hardest things to pick lol thay look pritty nice in that pic thow.
dont like the seats in the front but thats me
I love it mate... 4get that last post hahaha the seats look f**kn mint...
i'm not tailgating, i'm keeping up with the pace car
yeah not sure about the rims i think black rims would look better...and each to their own about the seats i do like them will probs change them down the track to something abit better looking but they will do for the time being(plus i feel like a race driver when in them lol) cheers for the comment mate.
def put the gmax rims on... they always seem to make nice rims and imo they look good on white
well calais is pissing out oil my mate said it could be the front seal or main bearing i forget which one he said so car is off road till i take it to mechanic to get checked =( not happy!!

Update on the car:
Well vn is back got a new powersteering rack put on and had another extractor put on so no more ticking noise sounds so much better with out it and also had a wheel alignment done and she drives great now pretty happy it's back on the road.
Now im gonna give the seats a good clean they got a few marks on them and also cut and polish the car hopefully make the shit paint alittle better and a new steering wheel and that should make me happy for a week lol then start doing stereo and everything else.
I put some newer pics up with the clubby wheels on it not much else has really happened with it besides rims and my stereo is all in now just enjoying driving it atm more mods will happen soon.
Well im thinking about getting a new exhaust put on because its not loud enough plus a little bit more power couldnt hurt but cant decide what im gonna get yet im thinking 3 inch straight threw but i dont know how that will go...anyone have any better ideas?
Heres another 2 random pics:
