well, looks like itll be a while til the paints done, weathers gone to ****, and painting the roofs not gonna happen unless we get some really warm days.

in other news, ive got a new rear skirt im playing with. vp ss sedan skirt, im making it fit. was never happy with the fact that the vn skirt doesnt match vp.

heres a couple pics of test fitting the sides on the car after cutting some plastic away on the inside. gotta love the 4wd ride height. no pics of center bit, as it needs mega plastic welding to fit. lengthen and remove exhaust hole. but with some mounting plastic removed, the side bits will fit snug as with some sikaflex to pull them in a bit.

since i cant do any work on the vp, im buying presents for it.

decided im putting electric windows in, and these switches will be perfect for it i think. theyre black despite the brightness in the picture



and rear switches to suit, these came off a bmw, closest match i found.



cant get original trolley strips anymore, most of them are NLA, so looks like its back to trying to find a good second hand set.

i know,took me a while to find the bmw ones, and at $50 a pair second hand, theyd wanna be good. only thing is im not sure what colour leds they are if they even have any. hopefully if they do, i can open them up and change them to red to match the ve switches.
