    Not sure if i like to though, to be honest. The slight difference in the white would irritate me. I think I'll paint mine red, and get red stripes for the front/rear bumper like the SS has... The lip kit will come later hopefully.

    Also, I'm surprised how good the VT rims look on a VS... I've never really liked them by themselves, or on a VT, but they really suit your car.

    how much did it cost to do the power window conversion? Is it a bit of a pain in the arse? I've been tossing and turning over whether to do it or not...

    Yeh theres a slight diff in the white paint , but in real life you can hardly tell . And they probly will fade a bit later on.
    Yeh im really happy with the vt rims they look really good with the white sorta suit it with the 5 spokes.

    Umm I brought the whole kit off ebay (which was the motors, relay, switchs and door trims) for $150 which was pritty cheap. Its a little bit of a pain in the ass because you have to take the door skins of and drill out the pop rivits holding in the old winders , but then its a simple task of bolting the motors in and conecting the power cables.

    I was really lucky as mine allready had the wiring in it so it was a simple plug and play to put them in. I would say its a good days work to put them in . hope that helps

    Where'd you stick your sticker? Post up photos

    Also, regarding the power windows, Did you have the wiring all in place or not? Because I have the low end BCM in mine, I don't have the power window wiring... So I'm using the control module and loom out of a VN calais.

    Yeh mines a Acclaim so all the wiring was all ready in my car (under the headunit part and in both front doors), I only needed the rear door wiring which was easy to get from the wreckers lol . And mines only a mid bcm i think so it doesnt have the auto down on the drivers window , but it really doesnt matter lol .

    i like the look of painted trolley strips and your boot install looks good mate.


    and auto drivers window down is an awesome feauture. my next mod is to make this work on the passenger window too. because everytime i get in it. both windows come down. unless its raining. then only one
