hey man, im all for spraying interiors on the commies but more of bold colours, i think thats a bit of a too light bluey colour imo but everyone to their own, bold colours like black, vy ss green and that work very well.

[holden_man86]

yeah i thought the colour was darker but it came out lighter so yeah i am still happy with it just going to see how it looks when i put it together and yeah if i need to go darker i will

[social]

hope ya gave it a light sand, plastic primmed it and then sprayed it, will make all the difference after a few weeks.

Honest truth? It looks awful. Painted Holden interiors look tacky and cheap. But that's just me. Each to their own

So don't post up on a public forum asking for opinions, you aren't going to get ALL positive opinions on it. Gimme a sec and i'll post you a link to my car, but i'd expect you to post something negative reguardless of whether you think it looks good now because you didn't like my opinion.

Either way, as i said, each to their own.

Just don't post up a thread asking peoples opinions on something, then crack it when you get one.

mate i dont mind people haveing a opion but theres a way to say somethings and another way to say others

i will judge the way you car looks in my opion but yes i can see that i may not like it on the context that you like dark stuff i like bright stuff

[Cobez]

Hey, i'm not about to research how each person reacts to the way something is said. You posted a thread on a PUBLIC forum asking opinions. Different people say things in different ways.

Each to their own, i hate bright shit, you like bright shit. Hence why i didn't buy a white or silver VS HSV, i'd prefer dark colours. Hence why you own a white VS, you'd prefer white.



And you are supposed to sand it so the surface is mega smooth and doesn't have blemishes in it. I'd use something like 700 grit first to grate any crap off of it, then work my way up to like a 1200 grit to make it smooth. Then platic prime and paint it, followed by several layers of clear. Otherwise it will chip and peel within a month.

so show me ya car cobez

its not bad but yes its a nice car mate i wouldnt drive one but yeah not bad!!!!!

[vs-6]

i have to say i dont like the colour i did mine and as others have said it must be executed properly i first painted mine black and jsut a cheap can of paint turned out shit
then decided i wanted somethign different so i went a silver but instead of jsut a cheap can i brought decent quality but not plastic paint jsut half decent paint i used plastic primer wax and grease remover and i sanded it back a bit jsut to rought it up a i used a very very fine grit paper the silver turned out alright but i only painted the cluster surround instead of whole centre console and everything.
i think everythign painted looks a bit tacky and also the areas that u touch tend to get sctrached even by peopel feet in passengers side and ends up looking liek crap.
personal oppinion hope it hasnt come across harsh

[Cobez]

Cheers dude

Anyways, make sure ya sand it all, if ya just cleaned it and painted it and didn;t put clear coat over it, the paint will scratch as easily as you could imagine and will bubble after a few hours in the sun or heat, and will peel after a month.

Your end result will be as good as your preparation.

[holden_man86]

this is my brothers car i would have to say it shits all over your lookswise and powerwise

[James_yo7]

hahahahahaha ban?

[Cobez]

That's lovely, i bought a VS because i don't like anything later than a VS / VT, and **** buying a VT because they are so bloody heavy. Anything past a VT is dog ugly IMO, so i bought a VS HSV and had plenty of change in the bank.

I only really like early model Commodores. the VE was the most haneously offensive abomonation of a commodore since the VL lol. Each to their own though Of course the VE shits on mine powerwise, any cars with 12 years of technology between them are going to be different in power lol. Those rims are the uglist things i have ever seen though, lol, "blingy" dinner plates.

[eurekamad94]

not really my choice in kolor but post up a few pic's when it's back together

[holden_man86]

pictures will be up 2moro night once all is put back together thanks for all opions

[kniever]

man those rims on the ve look hideous, totally ruins the car
