Hey guys. Been meaning to post sooner just haven't had time.
Got a fair bit of work done on the car over the past few weekends and i got it looking mint.
Installed new exhaust. Lukey headers and 2 1/2" cat back. Also got my superlow springs on.
Then last week got my rims on. 18" Vendetta V8's. I think it really brings the car together. Also got my VX boot on Sunday needs a respray. Probly get it done this week sometime.
Give us your opinion. Cheers.

Well got a bit of work done on the weekend til I slammed my finger in the door of my old mans ute. However I did get a little surprise this weekend. Greg from ASR dropped in and hooked me up with a conversion. Tomorrow I'll get a hold of a good camera and take some shots of the car that with do my new dash justice.
Can't wait to see what it looks like man.
Heres some pics of my new Phreddied dash. looks mint just gotta keep my eyes off it and on the road

Cheers mate do love the colour, not a very common one amongst commodores. And yeah I really can't praise Phreddy enough. Until you've seen him go through the process you'll never realize how much time and effort he's gone through to perfect it and as you can see the result is amazing
Im thinking about doing mine . I bought a set of L.E.D blue dash light globes off ebay , put them in and bits of the dash light up real nicely others i could bearly see , dont know whats going on there , so the second attempt i bought blue silicon covers to fit over the original globes , havnt yet tryed it hopefully thatl be sort of work . But the i do have to say your dash looks bloody great mate good work
