Not a fan of the spoiler, but it's your car.. It's still a very nice car
thanks all,i actually have a vs spac lip to go on once its painted,hopefully next week that will happen.
i gave the car a good polish today and was amazed how much better the paint came up,no pics though...
hey man anything new any updates
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee\
update:
got the vr/vs s pac lip painted and fitted it myself.
it was a bit scary drilling through my good boot lid as i had never done anything like that before but i measured it about 10 times before drilling...
also painted my engine covers blue,not an immaculate paint job but better than having 2 red and a grey cover.
other than that,havn't done much to it except wash it, polish it & drive it.

wondering what i should do next?
Looks very nice mate. Get the door handles painted next I reckon.
door handles would look good painted....maybe save up and do some engine/tranny work?

i agree with Nathan blower sounds good
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee\
so i thought id just do a quick update,got a new bonnet and guards to replace the stone chipped ones,fitted some new rear shocks as the old ones were completely stuffed and recently went over it with a mothers clay bar, meguiar's scratch x and polish.
Also went to a little race track out near Bathurst for a peter brock memorial cruise, i dont think many people have heard of it, they call it MT Panorama.
also just a couple of pics of my car next to a genuine Shelby GT-500

Oh awesome, it was the exhaust on your car that I recognised actually haha. I thought it was pretty good too, damn cold though. Ah ok lol, we posted the pics we took in my thread (link's in my sig below)Yeah i remember seeing you there,was a pretty good day,as usual though for me,i always park in the odd spots out of the way so no one got any pics of my car lol
This SS looks the goods.
Did you get your original rear lip cut for the second exhaust?
Could you post a pic of the exhaust cut out on the RHS?
I want to do this to mine, but the original cut out is molded and I want to see if you can notice the difference between the two.
Cheers.
sorry for the delay in replying, i bought the car with the rear lip missing but found another genuine lip and had that cut when i had the front and rear bumpers painted. i also now have 2 spares just incase.
do you mean the molded part the goes in behind the lip,runs along the exhaust slightly?
i thought of the same thing when i had the RHS cut out but i ended up getting the "professional" to cut the molded part off the LHS also.
its hardly noticeable, people would probably more pick where the "professional" ####ed it when he cut the RHS out than the moulded bit being cut off.
i can still get a pick if you want?
Yeah thats it, the molded part that goes in behind the lip.
Never thought of getting that cut out to match the RHS, cheers for that. No need for the pic but thanks anyway.
Looks like i'll get a lip off ebay for someone to cut, as my original also has a towbar cut out that I dont want.
no worries, you could always get the tow bar cutout plastic welded, mine had the cut out also which i got plastic welded/glued using the piece that was cut out for the exhaust.
got a picture of your headunit thinking of putting a dvd headunit in my vr want to see what it looks like first![]()
