[s_pack]

Nice car mate, reckon ditch the side skirts and the spoiler though! Maybe vn ss sideskirts? Reckon looks tough with the group a front and back bar though I really feel for your rear bar though, poor thing

[fitzy2005]

looks awesome dont liek the monster tacho, but hey it aint my car :P

[white vn ss]

yea love the statesman but get rid off the kit ruins the look of a statesman. if u really wanted that kit y did u not buy a vn? anyways nice car apart from the kit. but if u like it thats all that matters

[GLDNVL]

LOL! Thanks for the replies guys, and girls?!
Yeah I know the Kit really, really lets it down, I bought it with the intention of removing the wing and sides, but lost my job two weeks from getting it, LOL. But will be coming off in the VERY near future! And as for the rear bumper, thats currently being resprayed and modded to suit the stato.
Thnks people!

[State'O ReBeL]

group A front looks the goods, but the rest lets it down

you got the same head unit as i do hasnt got enough setting but

[GLDNVL]

[GLDNVL]

Sits a bit too Low I think:



And Mark, Your Patch:



Bumper - Ground = 90mm
Tow Bar - Ground = 60mm



ALSO!: When my Tax comes back, I hopefully will be riding on some 19's

[NVE_069]

did u buy this or have u had it for awhile, as i seen this on ebay once. not too bad but i think kits besides the ones thay come with wreck the look of the stato's. damn thats low mine looks like a monster truck compared to that. but overall not a bad ride

[GLDNVL]

[State'O ReBeL]

'group A' front looks alright

[GLDNVL]

^^Yeah I certainly do agree with that! ^^

I am seriously contemplating getting a Stock VQ Rear Bar, with those like "extensions" they have on the bottom.

[VRFURY]

hmm very interesting ride you got there

[1991_Vn2nV]

Man thats low..You wouldnt get over any bumps! My car sits at 108mm with the sideskirts and I have to be damn careful... Atleast the tow bar will protect the rear!
