Nice man, That's tidy.

Low profiles are a must straight off.

My first car was a VN :P

[Commie Bastard]

im 3rd year apprentice so ive been workin for a while i can afford it...

i know the standard commie's wheels are god awful but im havin a bit of fun at the moment with them
i wanted to drop it but i planned on putting 18s on it. do u think rims first them drop to get the clearance right?
wht u reckon about spoiler? maybe ss one dunno someof my mates have said yes and some no

i debadged the back, looks 90% better and took mudgards off. there are two little wholes where the top holden badge was if you look in the photo ull see. any ideas how to fill.

Very clean ride bud. How many ks on it?

No spoiler. You'll lose that 'clean look'
i've had 2 holes in my boot for 2 years :P Water shouldn't really get in there. 2 holes in replacement of an ugly badge.. def worth it.

hey bro

110k
yeh dont want a spoiler ne more, got bigger plans for it. did prestige smash take ur towbar off or did you not have one to start with. i got the acual like knob bit where u tow shit but the like bar that sticks out need like welding and needs to be jacked up and the back bar removed to get it off.

btw replies to posts dont get sent to my emails as notifcations? but pms do

Nice neat looking car there mate. I would definitely do the wheels first, then look at dropping it. That way you will know exactly what the finished product will look like. To be honest that would be all I would do to the outside, maintain its clean look! Then you get to play with the interior! Get the LED dash conversion by Phreddy from ASR Audio...

looks good man but u need to remove those horrible plastic mouldings on the doors...

Removal Of outside Door Protector Trim

i found this one and it turns out there harder than it seems. some people have had major problems and others havent so i dunno.

[Hotblack]

You could always take it to a panel shop and get an estimate from the to do it, shouldn't be that much....

Don't waste your time.. you'll only sratch your paint and be left with ugly sikaflex on your car.. and spend countless hours doing so. They look fine so long they are colour coded to the car.

I never had a tow bar, but they're easy to remove.
