    Just went out and gave her a polish, nice 90mins worth, and yes it was at 10pm but its cose its nice and cool , she turned out absolutely stunning! got a few marks out, can throw a tea towel lightly and she just glides across the bonnet il get some photos up tomorrow morning.

    Also got a set of 15" VR Clubsport rims lined up so hopefully grab them in the new few days, was looking for 17s but these will do for now.

    Anyone know where i can find a set of white mirrors?

    If u cant get a hold of white mirrors bro, compare the price of getting a car painter to paint them the colour u want..

    Just an idea..

    Nice car mate, very sharp!! some seat covers would look sweet.

    just finished de-badging the HOLDEN and COMMODORE and executive badges and stickers off the rear of the car, came out very nice indeed, thanking all the previous owners for the care of the paint took me 15mins, a piece of fishing line, my fingernails, a rag and some polish and bobs ur uncle. heres a few pics;

    The finished job






    The leftovers (all in one piece and could be reused)



    Definitly looks better
