    Haha cheers guys and my stock lights are sitting in the shed and I think about most on this forum would prefer if I put them back on but I honestly prefer the chrome set and I'll take that most don't like it on the chin and accept it .

    Cheers mate I just used a ordinary matte black paint hasn't faded or sweated or anything like that still looks as got as when I done it. It wasn't a plan thing just had a spare can sitting around and thought it might do alright I thought I might need heat proof paint but it's stood it's ground so far pretty stoked actually

    Yeah there magnetic and location of them is changed often. It's my garaged car so the plates are often located in my glove box not on the car and everytime I drive it I put plates on and when I park it plates off (numerous ones have been stolen) so they don't get to much of an appearance well only in photo's haha

    For confirmation of the magnetic plates here are some photos without them

    Cheers guys.

    I knew the SS kit was gonna be the first thing mention my problem with the SS kit is that it doesn't appeal to me at all.

    Not to insult all the SS's out there cause there are some sweet looking ones.

    And as for the gto kit it looks over done on the VX's (have seen quiet a few) I would go the SS over it any day... so it's done for the count.

    I'm gonna go cliche and say I like the clubsport front & side skirts not a big fan of the rear bumper.

    But also saw a ve clubby kit thought WTF but it looked really good so I was like maybe but overall I'm more inclined to go with the clubsport kit even though it's as common as a cold these days.

    Edit: After looking at some SS's online and in a few forums have decide to go with the SS kit...just happy I've made up my mind
