Mate those rims are on the money ! Imo chrome/white door handles would set this thing off !

And then of course chrome window surrounds, white mirrors etc :)

lol yeh i painted some door handles white a while ago but lost them :( so now iv haft to take all the door handles out of the other vs i have in the shed and re do it.. and iv been looking for some chrome strips for a while now and i want to tint the windows also and put level 3 cluster, elec windows,cruise etc etc have some plans for this.. hopefully everything goes to plan tho lol

Thanks man.. Yeh i did all the mods myself but i didn’t buy them i swapped my old vs caprice for a vr 5speed a while ago and it had most the mods already the rims etc on it but then i bought this vr i own now and i pulled everything off the other car and put it on this car except the pacemakers and LSD they were already in the car when i bought it.. so basically i just swapped everything over from car to car..
