    Maybe a SS style kit. SS lights both front and back. Tint the windows. Lower it. Get some nice rims for it (not full chromies). Change the exhaust tip. That should make it look good.

    Just follow the other guys recommendations, lower it, nice wheels, debadge & tint....you can't go wrong.

    Just don't start putting HSV body kits onto V6's as this is the biggest wank off all, putting an SS / S or HBD kit would be a nice touch....keep it simple and elegant and think about other mods like exhaust & CAI.

    Sorry you are a wanker for saying most P platers are wankers and you are a wanker for your writing in the first post. You're gay. Get some pics up of your car or i dont believe you even have your licence.

    I own an Commodore, therefore, I own the road


    Oh how i love rear wheel drive

    lol.. bit harsh. I believe him when he says most P platers are wankers because from what I've seen, they are. They may be a minority on paper but you always see the reckless ones on the road. I'm a learner too btw getting my licence in a month (assuming I pass).

    As for the OP. Keep mods relatively small and OEM apart from rims. I've found that just adding bits from the model up from yours (in my case the calais), it really changes the whole look of the car and makes it look so much classier.

    ok theres a couple of things wrong with this,
    no. 1: I didnt say P platers are wankers (get it right buddy)
    no. 2: I told you already I dont have my license yet ("soon to be, P-plater") is that too complicated to understand??

    and also, someone has to post the first post, why shouldnt it be me? (think about it) and also, i do not see a valid reason as to why you came to the conclusion i was homosexual, which i am not i would like to add!

    so mate, dont call me a wanker, i havent said anything about you, so thankyou for your opinion, but i dont think its nessecery!

    well thats one way to turn a thread to shit...

    just look at pictures of other people rides, you will soon get an idea of what you want yours to look like. You'll see something and go SWEET! i'll have that...

    Bit of advice thou, try to get a picture what you want the whole car to look like b4 you go and start buying things, you might see something you like, then another thing but it wont match the first thing you found. If you know what i mean...

    Another bit of advice, its your car, starting a thread asking for peoples opinions on something will 90% of the time will result in a shit fight as you can see. Do things you want to do to your car, not what other want you to do.
