    Bit of an update since I haven't been on here in a while..Got my hands on a genuine VX Clubsport body kit in the same colour as my car! Was pretty happy with that, although I know it's probably not to everyone's taste. Also got Blue LS1 covers that I think look alright too.

    Other small things, just debadged the 'Berlina' badge on the rear and installed all the audio equipment that I had in my old car.

    Coming up..Springs, shocks and struts should be done within the week. Still on the hunt for a set of wheels and the sideskirts to match the kit..Going to look into debading the lion front the bonnet and boot as well, think the clean look would suit it more. So much more to do but it's coming along slowly

    (Sorry for the crappy phone pics)

    Looks nice mate! I am a fan of the Clubby kit on a VX, I have one sitting in the garage waiting to get sprayed and fitted to my car! I can't recommend getting it mafless tuned enough!!! When I finally did mine I was kicking myself for not doing it earlier!! Have fun modding!!!

    Congratulations on the pick up mate. I was shocked when I saw what'd happened to the VY after following your updates.

    The Clubby kit looks great. A nice clean ride to make your own!

    Good luck!

    You probably don't want to see a pic of the side atm cause it looks pretty terrible. lol You can tell the height is uneven between the front n rear bars and to make it worse the car is still at stock height

    On a brighter note i just received the shocks n struts yesterday so they will be in soon with my springs!

    Cool, dunno if I want to go all out on mods for my ecotec - only to sell it and not get half back.

    May just put cash away for an 8, chew up much fuel?

    Yeah thats exactly it, I'm glad i didn't do any work work 2 my last car cause it would have been money down the drain! I would definitely save for a V8 cause it's way worth it!

    Fuel wise it's actually not too bad...Depends on how you drive it (like every other car i guess)..13-15lt per every 100km is about average for me...

    Bit of an update...Got around to getting an Xforce 2.5" twin cat back exhaust, sounds like a V8 now!

    Also debadged the front and rear lions, looks a lot cleaner IMO..I have the sideskirts coming very soon, hopefully next week i will have them! Some new pics...
