I pushed through Winter with the same problem, come the first warmish day a few weeks ago I was straight to Holden to get it fixed. They pretty much held me to ransom on the price, I would've paid whatever to have the AC cranking again lol. Not much change from 800.

So did you get a ticket for "failing to stop", not sure what state you're in but in Qld that doesn't even exist. And if you got that "charge" as you say, how could you have got a caution?

Police don't have to pursue the matter if its not in the public interest to do so, this applies to certain criminal offences too.

From the imformation you've provided so far, it appears you'll be unit 1 - take your pick: a traffic infringement notice for follow too closely or a notice to appear at the magistrates court for drive without due care and attention. You'll be the at fault party, and if the police didn't...

Get something with a twin hump for sure mate, don't go a flat lid unless that's your thing. Check out Zinardi hard lids. Don't go a dodgy eBay special whatever you do, unless you enjoy cracked fiberglass or warping in the warmer months. Not much change from about $1800 is right.

Hypa Customs on the Gold Coast do good work. Looking around $500-600 painted + fitted + fibreglassed in so it sits smooth and doesn't just look placed on and strange.

Nice ride. Do you work at like an Autobarn type place?

Debadged and quad tips...I rest my case. I haven't made any disparaging comments against 6 cylinders, my argument is towards those who make an intentional effort to make their ride look like an 8 when it isn't. I'm not saying you specifically are, but there are many in the same boat who do. Fair...

My chev badge is purely for the aesthetics, I've debadged the SS badges, do you want them to put on your 6 to further try to convince fools that you don't drive a 6?

I'd rather be driving around in an 8 with any badge than a 6 fullstop.

Sorry to bump an old thread but just saw that engine cover paintwork and it's absolutely awesome!!

Make sure you de-badge it and put quad tips on like 90% of the people on here with sixes who want people to think they have an eight. Nice paint though.

For those interested, Show N Shine Info Australia is a good site to suss out upcoming events!

Mate forget trash off eBay, send them to Utemart at Burleigh on the GC, perfect job. Won't get much change out of 2 grand for a Zinardi twin hump lid painted and fitted for a VE tho.

Mate looks good except for the rims. You've got the rice mods done so get started on the go aswell as the show.

Paint job looks absolutely mint mate, great effort!

Nothing wrong with Advanti rims.

Stock v6. Fantastic

Looks the goods mate, hard lid is definitely going to set it off. Good to see a slightly modded ride rather than the usual stock as a rock threads that people seem to post a bit of lately.

I'm a fan of the wheels in the first pics, but nice looking rig mate, get the mods crankin'!

Hmm a p plater V6 de-badged and quad tips, very unique. Nice ride gl with it.

Mate your wagon looks the goods!! Great colour!

Sounds like a great way to meet other like minded enthusiasts!! Anyone have any links to these kind of events in Brisbane/Gold Coast??

Mate she still dances around a bit in the wet trying to get the power to the ground. Installed some HIDs on the weekend and topped up all the levels, looking at putting a few km's on over the Easter break.

Few more pics. Added the Zinardi hardlid, big thanks to Utemart at Burleigh Heads for the great finish and fit. Reverse camera fitted, the views not too bad with the Zinardi lid as it's tapered down the middle so gives a decent view when reversing. Looking at adding DRL's and then exploring...

It's more the location than the type of car that attracts the attention of police. They do intelligence driven patrols of areas that are high volume crime areas, eg getting smashed by a bunch of breaks. Flasher cars get more attention from the police, but "random" breath tests aren't random at...

Looks great mate, gotta love the Walky power pack! I got mine through Powertorque at Ormeau, worth every cent.

Looks the goods mate!!

I've debadged all the rear and side badging. I like the gold of the front chev grille, sets off the purple nicely. Will give her a bath tomorrow and chuck up a few more pics.
