    nice ride but iagree with VN2NV, the chev badge has to go like, yesterday...
    Its not a chev, it don't got a chev in it, why would you??

    Other than that, good effort so far..

    looks good, but as above, drop in a ls1 or lose the badges.

    and you need something a little extra on the white grilles, maybe swap them for some nice mesh or something, dunno

    haha i remember when i did mine on me VY, what ya have to do mate is rip the pedal off the bolt with a flat screw driver, took me ages to figure it out ai, the blot doesnt come off, so yeah you it just comes strait off once you use the screw driver to lift the pedal off the bolt, IF THAT MAKES SENSE ????

    Let us know how it goes ??

    Also make sure you take note on how the spring is one there so you can put it back on.....

    oh yeah, the way i put it on was by having in on a angle with one side on the bolt sort of thing and with a screw driver puting the other side on by lifting the plastic ova d bolt and into the hole.....

    Thats how i did it aye...

    nice car mate, just don't know about the bonnet shape, it looks weird when it comes over the front bumper, the badges need to go and the grills, but besides those things beautiful clean first car, treat it well so it stays like that
