Might pay a bit extra next time and get something from interstate. Same product, better service. They stuffed myself and my brother around, not to mention Kyron and a few others. Might just speak for them as a whole, don't seem to be able to get it right.

Yeah it is f***ing gay man, but thems the breaks. Welcome to the world of cars, now bend over. :p

Originally the rims sat on 225/35 tyres. Maybe I should have taken the hint that they were the wrong size because they are the only load rated tyres that fit properly on a VZ... got a set of near new 245/30ZR20 if anyone is interested? haha

Went in for a check up yesterday because it's been dropping coolant. What I was expecting to be a $500+ radiator/water pump, turned out to be a damaged radiator cap losing pressure. Go figure. Now just need the oil pressure switch and LPG done.

Car is also EOI. Slip us a PM if you're interested.

Lion badge fell off the grille, LOL. Kinda looks good without it, what do people reckon about painting it black? Considering the rest of the chrome trim on it, dunno how it'll look.

Or put some chrome sticky stuff on the grill bars like the Chev ones?

New LED parkers from evilBay, have to be well over 50 SMD's, bright as f***!

Hopefully gets some loving this weekend, been busy recently.

Quiet as usual on the Calais front. Funds for it are restricted. But I decided when the time comes to get it some presents. Keeping it small, stereo, lights, coilovers and few body kit pieces. Could do a lot more but I'm always considering something newer. No point blowing heaps on this to lose it and have to start again.
