My New VS Ute

[lclynch]

Hey Guys,
Ive just brought my first VS Commodore Ute and i have a few things that id like to do to it. e.g
*Lower it
*Rims
*Tinted Windows.

The only custom thing on it is a dual exhaust system that sounds pretty beefy.

So i was wondering if you guys had any ideas on things that you have done to your utes or things you have seen that look good would you please help me out.

Thanks

sounds good. can't wait for pix

[Leathal11]

sounds good mate!
and the mods you have for it sound good, could also chuck a cold air intake on thereand a hard top mabe

[lclynch]

Yeah,
i dont want to go over the top with performance parts just yet.
im still on my green p's, soo im trying to get looks for it...
damn restrictions
but i spose an air intake wouldnt be that bad ?

welcome to the forum mate

theres a few sections with some great info, V6 mod & develop, car audio, and dont forget the VR-VS my ride section, whack up a thread in there with all your info and all your pics

sounds like a good start

[lclynch]

Thanks Mate
Ill have a look around

[lclynch]

Going to pick up the ute today guys, i should have some pics up in a few days

Wouldn't stress too much about the cai mate. I'd say 90% of vr/vs owners on this forum have one, and a shitload of us are p-platers lol. They are easy enough to take off if you are ever defected, but I haven't heard of anyone getting done for some time now. As long as you drive responsibly they won;t pick you up. Good luck with it, and post some pictures when you get the chance.

[lclynch]

Yeah, i picked it up yesterday and drove it from the mountains to Parramatta area and it wasn't to bad. It almost was just like road noise, unless i put my foot down that's when its noisy.
For its age its great, all it needs now is a wheel balance its a bit out, pulling to the left....
Ill try and get photos up soon

[lclynch]

Here are some photos, my camera went flat on me so ill have to try and got some more soon...
When i compressed them they went a bit blurry?????

From the pics she looks clean and tidy.
Nice buy.

[lclynch]

Hey guys.
Ive made a few changes since i last posted pics.
The canopy is gone and is replaced with a cover.
I got the windows tinted with Midnight Express (Darkest Legal 35%)
The rear window is 17%.
And now i added red wipers.
Rims are going on in January..

hey mate, wat do u have planned for under the bonnet? i got some paceys installed on mine and it made a very noticable difference, can pick them up for pretty cheap 2nd hand over ebay.

[lclynch]

Side Strips came off today...

[VS-S-PACK-UTE]

looks nice mate, i wanna do but dont wanna attack my car lol

[lclynch]

Yeah its a hard job. it took me like 5 hours even with the caramel wheel and wax and grease remover.there are a few caramel marks but a few washes and cut and polishes it should be right... i thinking of a re-spray anyways, but i just dont know what it would cost.....

[lclynch]

Rolling on 18' RIMS now

[fuzzy2308]

[lclynch]

I like the rims, they set off your white paintjob quite nicely.

[lclynch]

youll need shorter bumpstops aswell or just cut the ones you have
