Cheers mate. The first thing I did was put those wheels on as it had Chromies and I wasn't a fan. Also the above pics have the tail lights that came with the car (altezza monaro). I wasn't a big fan so I swapped them with genuine monaro. This is the only pic I have of the rear as it looks today, as I only swapped the tail lights a couple of days ago.

Picked up with the body as is. I've only changed the wheels and tail lights. This was it with the chromies and altezza lights a fortnight ago.

Nice mate
I'm doing the same to mine too.. Vz monaro front
should change the tailights to cv8r's they'd look nice against the white.
U didn't buy this from QLD did you?

Yeah mate, it's from QLD. Came down a fortnight ago. Do you know much about it? I bought it from a wholesaler and he doesn't have all the details.

Shattered, thought you put a full monaro rear on (ie sheetmetal).

Damn those lights are shocking, go back to the red ones

Stealthy, you got it wrong man! They were clear altezzas and I have changed them to the red genuine monaros!

..and sorry to dissapoint you about the lack of monaro rear end on it.

Not much but I was gonna buy it off a guy near Brisbane and then he sold it to another bloke..then he got a few things fixed on it and advertised it a few days later..maybe a wholesaler bought it and thats where you found it? Who knows?

She looks mint as mate, especially with the SSZ rims. Very nice.
Where did you get those rims from mate? Very rare 2nd hand, set on ebay at the moment going for $1000+ with a couple of days left!! Crazy money for 18s

[GR3GA]

[BXHD]

the front looks sick! nice work
and definitely the best colour choice

Well, it could possibly be the same car then.

I got my mags from ls1 . com - I did pay over $1k for them, but the tyres were only 2 weeks old. Definately an improvement over the chromies that were on there.

..and thanks everyone for the kind words

If I end up keeping this one, I'm sure there will end up being something shiney sitting behind that bumper!

The monaro body kit really suits it man. Looks so much better with the monaro lights and your rims on it then the stuff you bought it with.

[666vt]

Not sure where the best place to get the front from is, but I believe it's a genuine VZ monaro bumper and headlights, so try holdens in the first instance (although I'm sure it will be expensive!).

Thanks mate, you must have the same taste as me. I think it looks 100 times better now!

Funny you mention the white walls, that was going to be the next on my list of things to do.

..but it maybeup for sale soon, as a change in work means I don't need transport. Then I can do what I've always wanted and get a dedicated weekend toy. Still undecided, but if anyone is interested PM me.

[valboes]

if you wanna sell it more stock looking, i have a vt S pack front bar in exact same colour, i would buy your monaro bumper and headlights in a heartbeaT!!!!! but i know im dreamin, just cant stop lookin at ur car it looks crazy with that monaro bumper !!
