finaly got some wheels on

**Silver_VS_II** · 15-09-2009, 03:34 PM

nice, what size are they? that engine bay hell clean. whole car is clean as. debadge and change your side indicators will make it a fair bit better

**Fonzie** · 15-09-2009, 03:37 PM

Looks like a pretty good base to build on, 127k kms is pretty good. Think the rims need to be a bit bigger... But they are better than the hubcaps

**fuzzy2308** · 15-09-2009, 03:42 PM

looks good and welcome

**Philthy** · 15-09-2009, 03:46 PM

Nice clean looking car! I don't think I need to mention that you picked the best colour VS

**seraphic06** · 15-09-2009, 03:51 PM

Clean looking ride. It would look better with some clear side repeaters.

**macneil89** · 15-09-2009, 04:10 PM

thanks for the comments they wheels were 1000 with tyres i was going to get a set of 18s but i wasnt sure about if id get defected or not so i just went with 17s abit smoother ride to im thinking bout debadging it and changeing the lights and side indicators.

**Fonzie** · 15-09-2009, 06:32 PM

Wow they're 17? They look smaller than that... Rim style i guess. I think my 18's look like 19s.

**macneil89** · 15-09-2009, 06:43 PM

yea they have abit of a lip on them wich makes them look smaller maybe once its lowered it will look better anyone got an idea were to get sum new taillights not altezers though.

**Fonzie** · 15-09-2009, 07:14 PM

Well you only really have the choice of gaytezzas, the calais ones (What you currently have), the base model ones (Orange indicators), or the completely clear ones. All of which you can get off ebay. You've already got what most people consider the best looking ones...

**Philthy** · 15-09-2009, 07:23 PM

Yeah you already have the best taillights on it. You could pull the "holden" & "acclaim" badges off to neaten the back end up a bit

**Trayner** · 15-09-2009, 07:26 PM

Looking good man , deffently keep the calais tail lights and debadge the rear

**macneil89** · 15-09-2009, 07:26 PM

Haha, yeah it just takes a fine layer of dust or some bad light and it can look very purple.

Debadging isn't difficult at all if you just take your time with it

**macneil89** · 15-09-2009, 07:53 PM

Philthy just looked at your car and the rims on yours are the ones i was going to get my dad showed me them but then the tyre place in my area said there no longer available there nice as

**Philthy** · 15-09-2009, 08:18 PM

Cheers, I looked for mine for about 2 or 3 months before hunting down a set, and that was in January last year. You don't see mine around very often

Goes to show you have good taste both in cars and wheels!

**macneil89** · 15-09-2009, 08:21 PM

haha yea when i was looking for a car befor i got mine i was looking at the same as yours but in white but it was in north sydney and couldnt get it back to my area i wouldnt mind getting the chrome strip around the windows and the red rubber strip on the bumpers and doors instead of the grey i saw the red and blue together and it looks realy good

**<RaBBiT>** · 16-09-2009, 12:58 AM

**CalaisJohn** · 16-09-2009, 03:02 AM

**macneil89** · 16-09-2009, 03:36 PM

thanks i try to keep it clean and looked after but beacause of the angle the pics dont realy show the scratches allover the side and theres about 5 little dents in the doors aswell im hopeing to get it fixed because it realy stands out when you see it

**macneil89** · 16-09-2009, 04:41 PM

**macneil89** · 19-12-2011, 07:48 PM

Been A while since I posted hear I got a lip spoiler off ebay already primed just wondering if anyone can recommend a good place to get it sprayed and fitted in the Liverpool area in NSW also been thinking off selling these wheels and tyres any ideas of how much could get for them.
