looks good mate![]()
Bonnet pins are gay, as are the HRT stickers.
The rear lights and the statesman garnish clash really bad as well. Put some stock lights on the back or the ones with just the clear indicator.
Other than that, nice VN mate.
I thought it was allright, add a 5litre and group A manifold ;D and I'd do it
you def need to change those taillights to suit the garnish
the pictures don`t do it justice Deb
this car looks better in real life and is quite a nice example of the vn imho![]()
The bonnet pins i love, not only because they are different, but because they have a story behind them.
The HRT stickers i think are fantastic because it makes her a one of a kind and she stands out in a crowd instead of being the same as everyone elses, and to be honest, i'd rather stand out and make a statement then be following everyone else and being classified as the "norm" lol. Kind of person i am and that will be my ride also.
The tail lights i have no idea what you are trying to tell me, i reckon they suit the garnish quite well actually, i did have Altezza light on there, but no only did they look really gay, the reflector was illegal due to there being no red there. I did constanlty re touch it up with the red lens dye, but everytime it rained the dye would disappear and it looked worse, as for that red strip you can buy to put on there................totally different red and looked even gayer lol.
Thanks NAAF and Mr Freak for your comments, you have seen her in real life and NAAF you have driven her (groan.......hahahaha), yes there is still alot of work that needs to be done and things accomplisehed, but a single Mum working her butt off can only do things extremley slowly and one thing at a time
Everyone has an opinion, that's what makes the world go round and i'm cool with that. You need to like what you drive and i am so more than satisfied with mine. $25 to fill up and it lasts me a week and a half, and she gets mistaken for a V8 constantly, i get more looks and compliments on her than i do my VC.
As for your question TroyRulz007, i will be more than happy to take some pics when it's daylight so you can see how i mounted it in there.
The unit is actually sitting on the passenger side on the side of the centre console, with the hand piece screwed in next to the gear stick. I went for the bigger one as i can put in my own frequesncies and i have the ability to go up to over 80 channels on my unit. (gotta love ebay)
I will take some updated pics of her now as she has new rotors, painted calipers and new XHP mags on her also.
Again, all opinions are welcome, weather good or bad..............i really don't care.![]()

Just had another look at the pics i got up and realised they are pretty old ones hahahahahahaha
The Altezza lights have been taken off her ages ago and the originals put back on.........Altezza lights were way to gay lol.
And i can't lower her anymore lol, she has a hard enough time going over the speedhumps around.........and now at Rocky City where they are doing all those works, and with some of the new speed humps...........it's a no go zone..............groan

I was wondering about the tail lights. Thought you changed them since the last time I saw it, then saw the rims and knew they must be old pics.
It's not speed humps you have to worry about...it's Tamars...
I see it more as constructive criticism. Obviously he had the same thought a while back with the tail lights and if theres a story behind the bonnet pins thats his choice. I did say it was a nice VN didn't I? I've copped alot worse than that mate and thats what happens in a public forum.

Um,he is a she.![]()
Yeah....he is a she.....
Constructive criticism? Be a bit more diplomatic than saying stuff is gay...lol...
She is just a big Holden and Brock fan and likes to express herself with her car. It is definitely different, just like the owner, she has a big personality and the car reflects that.
Well only 1 updated pic of the new mags and rotors as it won't allow me to upload anymore due to the red bar that's there????????
It's really weird.............

Looks tough, wheels suit well..
any more mods to come?
you have a nice girl,
tho i reckon you should make the boot garnish the same clear white as the rear lights...
that would be awesomee
sick car tho!

Thanks. But those aren't the lights on her anymore thou. i have put the originals back on as the clear ones were giving me too much hassles, and i thought they looked a bit cheap to be honest lol.
Hey Kirbs, what were you in? I hate that roundabout.....actually, just about the majority of Bunbury Drivers just have no idea about any road rules, they think the rules just don't apply to them lol
I have an upgraded memcal in her now soley for the gas (straight gas) and she drives pretty hard. We are getting her ready for a coat of new paint, and then the doors and boot and bonnet will be highly modified.....finally...
you really think it soounds ok? I'm still a bit unsre on that actually.....but thanks for the compliment, wave at me next time : )
