well currently my car has been defected as my exhaust was sitting 50mm above the ground. so fe2's are back in so is my spoilerand ive swapped my tinted indicators and tail lights with "benjamino" for the moment to pass.
only got one photo of the car at the moment. ill get some more photos soon as i work pretty intense shifts and usually by the time i get home the lights are gone and there is no point in taking photos

looks good mate, sorry to hear about the defect, the rims look a bit dark for the car though, are you going to get the clear side indicators as well? i just noticed hat you are on your p's, how did u manage to get a supercharged engine on your p's.

hey mate your car looks tuff silver on black just not sure about the side indicators.
How's does it run on 12psi? I was told not to go under 10psi when the cars stock and un-intercooled. But I wouldn't mind going to 12psi on mine, I prettty much got the same mod's
cheers mateyeah there painted gloss black. i smoked themm indicators but then i regretted it right after. im going to get clear indicators and normal tail lights with calais garnish as soon as this sticker comes off. i dont think theres any law in place in wa yet as to owning a turbo or a supercharged under p's.
thanks alot ducker. yeah i acted on impulse doing the indicators after i bought a can of night shade. but now i regret it. dont you worry itll be back to the clear ones after my defect is off. yeah car runs pretty good on 12psi no detonation or signs of my motor giving way. its pretty responsive. but the other night i went for a cruise with my mate benjamino who has a vx ss with a turbo. no where close to the torque or speed he had o.O
she looks nice mate and i also have to agree with ducker, the wheels look tough as, got anymore pics?

sounds gooood jase!let us know if u get pedders xas, i might be after a set![]()
dropped my car again today and went to change my lights back with benjamino. some reason the car is looking lower than ever. but oh well hopefully no more defects this time. still dont have time to take any decent photos. this weather in perth is really shocking atm.
nothing flashy. a few iphone photos i snapped up during work.

got my hand on a vx calais rear garnish. once i get it ill put it on and send my car off the the panel beaters to get the spoiler, boot and bonnet holes welded and re-painted then while its there im going to get the top half of my car painted in black. from the bottom of the windows up that is. not sure if i just want a normal gloss black or a black with a pearl or flake through it... but when its done it should be goodi cant wait
shet yeah jase look forward to seeing what she looks like when she comes out!
dno yet man, ive seen bulkkkk plates go for thousands and thousands of bucks on ebay+quokka that arent that special, lol was guna prob try advertise them for $900 n see what the response is..
lol youll probably get that price easy. im still thinking on weather to do the top half black. a part of me want to do it then the other part says itll be like cops come get me -_- you know how the cops are these days in perth
i dont reckon you should paint it, it looks good how it is, use the money for an intercooler setup![]()
