    Default Clean VR SS (new pics)

    Hi this is my VR SS havent owned it for long, had a VT SS S2 before this but it was stolen.

    The paint was faded when i got it but a bit of hard work has got it looking ok.

    Mods so far are just extractors and 2 1/2exhaust, cai, and tune soon.
    Let me know what you think, sorry pics taken with wifes phone dont do it justice.




    This was my VT still brings a tear to my eye

    Ive got very big plans for it i have started polishing things under my bonnet. it will get there slowly

    DoDo juice lime prime is your friend mate, worked great on mine, got mine through car car products they are great at helping you out also.

    After i used that i gave it 2 coats of next Generation wax, it still needs a few marks seen to but nothing a bit of time wouldnt fix.

    that is 1 sexy ss mate...i wouldnt mind getting myself a vs/vt ss eventually...i loved my v6 vt before is got smashed but thats another story..vr/vs have a nice body shape i reckon but the vt has the 5.7 6 spd and more creature comforts i think..but nice job on the polishing might have to get onto that dodo juice!dod
