Nice ute mate, though im not as keen on the VN group A bulge on VS commy's because the bonnet of a VS has its own natural bulge.

Looks nice though and rims help

sweet thats what mine should look like with bigger rims - you have to cut your bumpstops with those springs?

i got 15s still aye it doesnt look any lower and i put 60mm drop springs in,

Yep I had to cut the bump stops, I havent looked into it yet but I think you can also buy short ones (bump stops)

Nice ute may i say.. um Just why were on the topic of lowering cars.. i got a VS Series III ute and to me.. it looks like it sits a meter high :| ( not literally ) but yerr how low should i go? and i don't want to go crazy low so that i hav to slow down to 20km/h when i come to a speed bump :| any help would be nice thnx

good to see another vs ute on here, mines lowered also but still on 15's uncle gave me a set of 16's yesterday just need to tyres for them but ur 17's look good, i might end up goin 17's as i live on 1km of dirt road so not to excessive. mines as low as it can go without gettin a ugly yellow sticker on ur car and its not to bad over the bumps just got to be carefull i guess and i dont need to slow down heaps or "wog crawl" speed humps. keep us posted on up dates and go the vs utes
