wow mate thats heaps nice.. love to see some more pics of it

[Ace_VP]

very nice, are the wheels in the second two pics the ones on it now or the ones in the first two pics? I prefer the open spoked look as opposed to the closed in chrome ones, but thats me. Car looks great either way.

What have you done with the interior?

[RD2HVN]

thanks guys!! yes the wheels are the open spokes now they are much better looking on the car, had the closed ones on there as i was saving up for the bigger ones.. the interior is standard vp ss but i bought the interior brand new off a mate and it is immaculate with no tears or wears.. will have more pics up soon.

[10WVN]

cant wait to see them . . . quick question where did you get the grp a kit from?

[RD2HVN]

a mate had it sitting in has garage in primer! didnt think it was original until i saw the letters hsv on them i was like wow!!

[10WVN]

damn, what a score. so hard to find a original or even a glass one that isnt totally wrecked or over priced

[bandit10]

1st pic wheels suit it so much better nice looking VN mate, not to keen on the gauges on the bonnet though but apart from that top work.

[ducker85]

looks tuff. do you have the clear tail lights in it tho?

[RD2HVN]

they are the wheels that are on it!! look heaps better... hoping to change soon... yes clear tail lights.. have original grp a tail lights but i like the clear ones, they suit it in my opinion

[Ace_VP]

Im glad to hear that, i so hate those closed in all chrome rims, not nice at all. Other ones really suit the car, very nice. Love the colour to, for some reason it looks better in the photos taken at night, maybe its the lights, but it looks great.

[*uwishn*]
