I am after some ideas or suggestions on what I can do to my VT series 2 V6 Acclaim with traction control, airbags, abs and a towbar as the standard features it has only done 205 k on the clock the engine runs great with plenty of power under the bonnet as the previous owners have looked after it very well ex company car not thrashed feels like its just come off the assembly line.
Current Mods I have done to it is taken out the factory headunit and put in a new pioneer headunit, sub and amp still got factory speakers. Don't want to lower it the ride height looks good enough to me and don't want to go lower due to the towbar attached
Will post up pics later on. of the interior, under the bonnet and the exterior.
Please no tossers if you have nothing positive to say don't say anything at all. I am after straight up opinions and ideas. Thank you in advance for your opinions

give it a really good wash and polish
maybe a set of wheels
Chev badges are an instant fail
I give it a wash every week. Its got a couple of dents i got to get rid especially the major one in the driver door. I am looking at set of CSA's none of that chrome crap for this car polished alloys will look nice

what colour is your car?
I'd say very first thing to do is repair damage, dents etc. If paint is still intact paintless dent repair may be a very cost effective option. Then tidy up interior. I prefer tidy, straight cars over anything heavily modified. I wouldn't do anything mechanically, I am sure your VTII has adequate performance and handling unless you intend on driving like a twat.....
Reply to Cameron P my car is white.
I have a pic of the car and the headunit
The headunit, sub and Amp was installed by me I used Aerpro wiring harnesses and it works just fine no problems the only thing I had to do was cut the Aerpro pioneer ISO off as it was just a little a bit bigger so I soldered on the ISO from the the harness that came with headunit I fully recommend using Aerpro harnesses for a quick install it only took me 30 mins to do the install

I'd slip the lower SS kit on her. that way it cuts out the black. dump it some. nice wheels you got a nice cruiser.

I think the previous owners had a nudge bar setup on the front of the car as there is mounting brackets under the number plates I'll post more pics up tomorrow.

Lip kit but no spoiler. Spoilers spoil a car. Possibly try to get the chrome grille inserts and chrome window surrounds? Satin chrome interior handles, power windows install?
