    Question Berklee Exhaust, SS Kit & Gauge

    Hi guys, new here and new owner of a VX equip. Loving the car so far, its in good condition for its age and KM's

    Im looking at doing a few modifications and wanted some users opinions

    First of all, im looking at getting a berklee catback and wanted peoples opinions on quality and the noise it makes. Looking for something a bit louder than stock with a nice rumble.

    Second, im looking for a SS body kit. I have put an add up on the forums here. but considering looking at wreckers too. Has anyone had any luck finding these kits? cant seem to find any on ebay or online either.

    And Third. is there an online place (other than ebay) to buy a red gauge like this: VT VX SS Holden Commodore Red dial. (eBay item 150574072377 end time 20-Mar-11 20:00:12 AEDST) : Cars, Bikes, Boats

    Thanks in advance!

    I was quoted full vx ss kit with spotlights will be $2495 painted and fitted. Im guessing thats new gen parts.
    Iv seen people on here pick up a full kit 2nd hand for $250-$400 which id prefer to do. Then i know some people in paint and panel business that can paint and fit for me on the cheap too.
    Only problem is im not having much luck on ebay or at the wreckers.

    Oh if i had a full time job id definitely go the brand new route. But being a full time student and working part time, I just don't have the money.

    PLus id like to do most of the modification myself if possible. This car belonged to my uncle who recently passed away. So anything i can do myself would be very satisfying

    ive got a berlkee catback with single muffler, its awesome, quiet, smooth when cruizing and it lets you know its there when u put your foot down. No drone.
    got extractors now so it sounds better (sooo much better :P) and it drones the littleest bit when cruising at 60 - well more like a rumble. Get onto the freeway and put it in overdrive and its more or less silent.

    But of course this is on an old buick, shouldnt be toooo different on your car
