awesome looking car mate. I was always fond of the Manta body kits, id still be tempted to get a manta rear for mine. Got some big plans for this?

[SHMOOT]

cheers mate, i was just following your thread lol yours looks unreal, unlucky for that battle on the garnish, it took me a while too, i just bought one and painted it my self lots of mods coming over the next year, big sound system going in after my HSC, exhaust system although not sure what to get on limited funds? New induction system, dropping it a bit, and looking for some nice VE GTS PIZZA 20'' to chuck it on but its near impossible lol. In the next few weeks im redoing the whole interior in black and tiger leather as well as painting the dash, dial case, vents etc.

Sounds like il have a twin when your finished lol. As for exhaust you can easily pick up a 2.5" cat back exhaust for around $200 if that.

[SHMOOT]

Yeah, well whats not to like about yours lol. Catback is probably what i will do whilst i save up for something with some grunt, maybe a full stainless system how much did you leather set you back?

[SHMOOT]

Some more photos plus an older photo of my first sound system

[SHMOOT]

Ok, so today i decided to do some arts and crafts and give my dash a bit of colour, turned out pretty good i think

removed dash



splash of paint



and then the final result

[SHMOOT]

Decided to give my plenum a little bit of a polish didnt come up as good as i thought but I still thinks it looks better then the cover
