    Just upgraded the front brakes to slotted ones, also replaced the rear rotors and pads all round. Pulls up much better.

    Looks good. Love the white stripes on the lights and no bootspoiler.


    I have a spare holden sticker for the left side of your bootlid if you want it.



    Shame about being Auto and no power windows.

    Not planning to. Just keeping it tidy and looking after it.

    The fuel pump went last night just after filling up with PB Ultimate. Had no where to put the fuel so i thought the old ladys kia would be a good storage tank...... No way in hell did i have a chance to get my fuel back!!! The filler tube is nearly 11/2 metres long and shaped like a Z with the tank under the passenger seat!!! She gave me $50 for $80 worth of Ultimate for that shiatbox. I was spewin!

    Thanks for the offer mate. I have the standard boot here but dont really like the sticker Thanks anyway.

    I was looking for another VN SS but the **** boxes that were for sale at stupid prices was unbelievable, some people need their head checked! So was getting desperate and settled for this. Not too fussed. Cheers!
