Looks really nice man. Good work.

Can you resize your pics though please? Just a tad big.

[Pup]

love the tail lights mate

[pepstar87]

Ill resize them when my internet is sped up again (its currently at dialup speed because we went over the cap limit)

tailights are no longer in, they didnt suit the car although the leds looked hot at night.

[VY.abercrombie]

looks unreal mate. where abouts you get them rims from and how much if u dont mind me asking?

[pepstar87]

Straight from bob jane, cost me $2200 with tyres. they are the replicas.

Put the HIDs in, here is a quick pic off my camera phone.

I havent had a chance to play around with them yet and havent experienced them in night yet, but I love the brightness and colour, its 100 times better than halogens.



I still havent found a spot to mount the ballasts and decided what to mount them with (any suggestions? they are quite heavy)

And having problems with one flickering aswell as the high beams and foglights flickering and only the low beams are switched on...!! but am awaiting email from Gerald in regards to this

I read somewhere that it could be the ballast earthing through the chassis creating this problem?

Update -

HIDs are removed, gone back to standard lighting.

Ugly NSW yellow plates are replaced with standard white and black slimlines..looks much better.

SSSLs in rear and SSLs in front are now in!! Love how it sits now, doesnt even ride bad as I thought either, I will clean it up and post pics this arvo

[DUK13Y]

Will you be replacing the HID's once you get them sorted or just ditching them?

[pepstar87]

I sent them back.. they looked good but they dont really suit reflector headlights..

[LowVZ]

very tidy ute

[pepstar87]

Here are some new pics of her with the SSSLs in the rear
It sits lower than the pics suggest which im spewin about but oh well

[saliba]

mate are sssl's lower than ultra lows?

[summerZ]
