    next car will be a suprise til when i get it! =] need a pay rise first. haha.

    apparently it fully voids your insurance tinting head / tail lights.. which is why im really hesitant on doing mine... can anyone back this up?

    it is a defect yes. i think they only void on claims such as... "i didnt see his tail lights because they were so dark"

    i don't wanna wrongly advise you but as far as i know it should be ok.

    one of my struts collapsed last week. luckily it was in my driveway at the time though i still had the pain of getting it towed to my repairer. he put in pedders urethane bushes to ensure it doesnt happen anytime again soon.

    HID's and air horn go in tomorrow yewww

    Hey there, love the ute. I always respect the people out there who buy black vehicles - i'm too lazy to own one.
    Do i see mirror tint? How tricky is that stuff to see out of?
