The strut brace I got was already black so it looks really nice. I'm having a few issues with my two hole mod, I didn't give the paint enough time to set before I put the loctite on. I let it set over night only to find it still wet as ****. I just gave it a wipe down and reapplied it so hopefully the loctite works well. I'll have the pics up later on tonight.

Probably. My old man said if its doesn't set I should sand back the pipe, repaint it, let it dry properly overnight and then put the pipe back in place and use some selleys putty and seal it up like that. Won't do that till next weekend though.

Yeah, im in the same boat. Still got about year & a half to pay off. Then ill get the exhaust.

Just a quick question, y is ur manifold silver but mine is black? I thought only the 175 was silver & 190 where black.
Off the record, mine is a 04 SV6.

I actually asked the same question back in May in post 12 of this thread and this was the answer:

I think after Feb 05 the manifold changed to silver and got the four airbags and LSD as standard, just a minor update from Holden is all.
