[FirstVR_JC]

G'day all, I am fairly new here, have posted a few times now. Took some pics of my VR today and thought it time to post it up here on the forum. Bought the car 2 months ago in full stock standard form with 143000km on it. Let me know what you all think, and opinions and advice welcome. I am finding this forum to be very helpful in learning how to modify my car. Anyway here is my car!!!

Looks very neat mate. some 18's or 19's will look great on it.

Thanks for the reply mate... Yep, planning to put 18" on it.... looking at the Speedy EnvyMKIII in wet silver.

thought i would modify my cia today.... well ripped into it with a stanley knife and this is the outcome. Kinda reminds me of the ss inductions cia except it does not look as neat and doesnt cost 300 odd bucks.
You reckon doing this is going to add a little benefit to the cold air flow?
