Exhaust: not too sure but i paid close to $900 for it, with pacemaker headers and dual tip.
Gearbox: Auto
Brakes: standard
Wheels/Tyres: 15" chasers
Interior: standard, painted door handle backings and door locks.

Mods:

black head lights.................$250, 1 hours work

Future mods:

paint the bonnet and put some mesh in the scoops

put my superlows and camber kit in
19 inch rims, white wall tyres
colour code the skirts on my bumpers and sides
fix up my panel damage
leather interior
paint the dash
maybe do a front and back vx calais bumper / light conversion.
either that or save up for a cv8z kit
...and that is all.
would like to do a manual conversion but would be cheaper selling mine and buying a manual vt
would also like to do an ls1 conversion when i get off my p's... but same as above lol

..heres some pics anyways, let me know what you think, any tips would be good, advice on stuff would help alot, thanks.

If your gonna go exhaust and u wanna be a funny **** get extractors, put a straight through piece of pipe to bypass your cats n dont worry about rear mufflers. Sack it on its ass on stockies and it will be sik.

monaro lights look very nice mate but not a fan of the bonnet. Still a good starting point though

why's that mate? cos its not painted and the mesh isnt in? or u just dont like monaro bonnets? i actually wanted to get a full custom bonnet but i got this bonnet for a bargain so i snapped it up, i reckon it should look good once i get it painted.

cheers for your opinion mate, i agree the monaro lights look sweet on any vt, especially dark ones. i love em.
