    very nice, very clean.
    dont mind the exhaust just IMO a twin tip and make it come out near the rear door would make it beast and have it point out more instead of down, but thats just me.
    good work tho

    Why did ya get rid of the kit? That's the best part on a VR / VS SS besides the engine.

    Yeah I do toss up if to get it back on sometimes but couple of reasons, I wanted it to look a bit different to your everyday SS and liked the look, but I like the foggies in the front bar, and I would have had some issues with the exhausts through the back lip

    Why not just cut a hole through the lip. Works the same at the rear of the car.....

    Can always go back to the kit and modify where need be - Just my preference I guess..

    Just found a couple more.....

    I've since put an insert in the back bar to cover the gap too.

    It would be easy man. Big fan of the exhaust btw. Maybe just needs bigger tips, to stand out more (i missed it until i read the other replies in here lol)

    Cheers, I thought about going in front of the wheels but im pretty sure thats more illegal than what they already are!

    I'm thinking about putting the kit back on to see how it looks with the exhausts - Stay tuned!

    Thanks mate. It runs very nicely, it had a rebuild done not long ago so feels good. It's got one of the roughest idles i've heard on a 5L and smooths out when the cams kick in at around 2400rpm. I'm looking for more low down power now, not sure where too next!
