vz pin stripe + SL shocks

[Top_Deck]

Recently given my vz a new coat of paint!, just seeing what peoples opinions are on a chrome double line pin stripe to separate the two tone? I dont want it to look to over the top, so im hesitent about doing it.
also Im fitting my sl king springs soon, is it necessary to get shocks to suit?

wow it looks like its been submerged in oil. its diffrent ill give ya that

Was going for somthing different, its hard to tell in this photo, but in the sun its got a blue pearl through the white and black.

[MR_VX]

yeah ya cant see that in the pics, give the chrome strips ago why not.

[esca_ByDesign]

i would go coloured stripe if i were you, chrome would be seen unless you were standing next to it.

no sure about the colour, at least get some chrome wheels instead of black,
it looks like you ran out of money and couldnt do the top half of your paint job lol.

hahaha yeh, those rims are just cheap burnout rims, its not finished just yet, only pushed it out of the paint shop yesterday.

[heyitsEnricoPallazzo]

Not my cup of tea.
However, some contrasting wheels, calais head and tail lights and yeah some sort of pinstriping to break up the tones.

Yeh its still a working process, so anyone know anything about the springs and shocks?

[DevilDRake]

Chrome wheels will make it fit better haha :P

As for SL springs, SSL springs or SSSL springs, you can use ALL of them on standard shocks; recommending it is a different story.


SL's should be pretty much fine, SSL you may want them. (my ute has SL's, was a little rough tho)

BUT, my current car i got shortened shocks and struts front and rears, with SL springs, and it ran almost better than before i lowered it. I just put SSL in the rear and starting to feel it but w/o the shocks i dunno what i'd be feeling haha.


Simply, SL, if you don't have the money don't do it, otherwise do it - Hey, saves you doing ti later on if you need to

Should look pretty pimping when its low and some different tail lights

Alright thanks mate lot of help!, I will see how the springs run with the stock shocks first ey, also any recommendation on a exhaust system? Are extractors worth the time and money with a v6 auto?

Dont know why but i am thinking a lime green pin stripe.

Nice paint mate. Definitely sets you apart from the pack. I like it.

Dont know why but i am thinking a lime green pin stripe.

Now that you mention it that does sound alright.

[wattles]

yeah a nice pinstripe would look good but dunno which colour, maybe try photoshopping a bunch of colours?

needs a new set of wheels to set it off too i think.. something mean looking like gts wheels..

[Top_Deck]

Im thinking i will do the pin stripe to match interior, so red maybe...
I want to get some big deep dish chromes

[bogan_vk]

i was thinking orange pinstripes, for some reason i look at it and think orange would go well with the silver and black

If you're thinking of going with the red I think 'the wheel deal' does the gutter-rash/scratch protectors for alloy's in red also. So you'd look like you have red walls. Just a thought to tie that theme together.
