2008 VE SV6
Hi to all,

Just cruising commodore sites in Brisbane and found this one.

I've owned my VE for almost a year with no problems whatsoever. I thought about buying a VE SS, but the insurance was a killer, plus I have a family.

It's done just over 6000kms.

I got white as there's no cost for metallic paint with a 6 speed manual gearbox.

I want to do some minor improvements to the motor, interior and exterior.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears.

I had the tint done not long ago and it looks mad, especially the white-black theme and got some slim line weather shields. I thought about lowering it, but the gutters where I live are steep.

The SSV tail lights would look awesome, but have you seen the price for a pair ($400)? That is through a dealer, and the stupid thing is that they will not swap or exchange the lights that are on the car now.

I would not mind getting cold air induction but I have no idea on who is reputable enough to do the job and what price is a good price.

I would not mind having a dyno of the car done to see where it is at and have it tuned accordingly.

Where can I go to get things done? I live on the north side of Brisbane.

SSV Tail Lights

I ended up getting the SSV tail lights today. I was Given a cost of $410 for the pair, but when I went down to the dealer who I get stuff from, he gave them to me for $330.

They look mad on the car, especially the fact that the car is white.

When I get a chance to post some pics up, I will.

Go see Travis from Eagers down at Newstead. He can get things at trade price and possibally below trade price as per the SSV lights. He has helped me out heaps since I bought the car.:D
