Very nice car mate for red p's.
Sick band to .

[Escape-The-Fate]

thanks mate

[Escape-The-Fate]

tint got done yesterday, its actually 16% because there no such thing as 20%...which is fine by me, pics are up top^^

[StealthCalais]

Man that tint looks the business!! Looking forward to some of those upcoming mods!

Wish I had put that tint on my car, but scared if I got into accident I'll be in big trouble with insurance... maybe down the track... gotta love it though.

Looking good!

[DUK13Y]

Tint looks so good. Aren't you glad you didn't go the legal 35%. I want mine redone but on P's might be a bit of a cop magnet.

[Escape-The-Fate]

hell yeah, 16% is nice..my mates got 5% on his r34 and its too dark at night where as this is just nice..and i was a lil worried of it looking to dark agaisnt a white car but its not to bad i dont think..

[Escape-The-Fate]

got a recent pic from a cruise i went on since i got it lowerd and stuff...really need to give it a wash and get some proper pics up...no more mods done yet saving for wheels like crazy!!

[Escape-The-Fate]

bought myself an early christmas pressy, picked up a set of ve ssv's today just need to get them bored out and put some rubber on them...245/35/r19 fingers crossed they dont scrub out.

[PaulSV6]

Nice on mate,

Looking forward to pics

[Escape-The-Fate]

Went and priced up some rubber today, ended up getting 245/35/r19 federal 595's for $214 a corner which are getting done wednesday, pics will be up shortly after!

[Delish-VY]

if u plan on putting ANY bodykit on it, at all, remove that hideous black strip off the side first, i see plenty of exec's gettin around with clubby bodykits still with their rediculous black strip on them and everybody instantly knows its not a clubby and it just looks rediculous lol, so yes...please promise me that haha, other than that, very nice mate! im not even sure ule need a bodykit looks pretty sweet the way it is, the wheels will probly complete all ule need to do i reckon

[Escape-The-Fate]

yeh, thinking of leaving it how it is, and tidying it up a bit..will probably paint the door strips and mirror tops but just maintain it.

[Escape-The-Fate]

Wheels went on today, and it looks amazing!..i think it needs to sit a little bit lower personally but will think about it for a while. Pics will be up asap

[edday]

nice clean lookin ride, bet the rims look good. i rekon painting/removing the side strips will complete the look

[Escape-The-Fate]

new pictures up top, sorting out with a friend that is studying photography at tafe to take some professional photo's of my car and my mates r34 sometime soon just have to find an awesome back drop, im thinking industrial and hes thinking country/a lookout.

[matt_06]

what goes better? your commodore or your mates R34( Im assuming non turbo becuz p's)?????

[Escape-The-Fate]

Mates 34, its turbo and hes on opens..i had a drive and they got some balls for a little engine. I need to paint the calipers and inside bit of the disc, anyone got ideas on colour?..i was thinking silver or black for something different, either that or do red calipers like everyone else and black discs?.

[Escape-The-Fate]
