    Default jonboys nu vn

    Hay all this is my nu ride, 1991 vn v6 auto 137000 for $1800 pretty tydy just had the mean sagging hood lining,
    So far iv fixed that hood lining swapped al my suspention over from my other vn, had my rims powder coated igh gloss black, and done a bit of a ram cai throgh the front gaurd with 100mm down pipe and swapped my kit over.
    Im planning to get extractors an make up a full twin pipe exhaust, to paint it two tone using original color on top an satin/mat black bottom. i cant descide were to paint up to (either the door moulds or remove door moulds an go up to body cress jus below top of gaurd) any sugestions would be good.
    Im in the process of making a strutt brass and painting window moulds satin black.an doin some light weight sounds for it to, also im thinking of ading vs cai as well (more air got to be good)

    Sounds like you have it all worked out looks like a very straight car As for the paint job, I can't really help you there...Never really liked the 2 tone on VNs But very nice car, and love the front bumper

    Good start, a twin exhaust isn't really worth it on a v6. Just get pacies and a single 2.5" 'redback' exhaust on it.
    Check out my ride thread, i used to have a VX kit with VN SS rear skirts on it also..might giv u some ideas..
    You guna keep it red?

    I've wanted to get twin exhaust aswell, Got a spare bumber out the back, was going to cut off the exhaust mold from it and attach it to my current bumper, Seen only one VP with twin exhaust and all he did was cut out the section for the second exhaust, which looks very crappy and half arsed...
