JUst one thing I need to point out... 10 in every 100... also knows as 1 in 10... lol :p

Ute looks sweety... shame about the dint... thats why i never let my old man drive my VX when i still had that... lol

Atleast you see the humour in it by the look of that signage job :p

goos luck with it mate!

Sorry mate missed your post.

lol @ the 1 in 10, should have put it that way.

Yeah its only metal. If he had come back and say the whole rear end was ****ed then i'd be a little bit ****ed off but he cant exactly run away, kinda live in the same house :p There was no point it getting angry about it :) i have informed him on serveral occasions that he owes me a new tailgate lol and maybe a "sorry for reversing your car into a pole" gift aswell

i like, makes it look good and keeps the clean, smooth look of the tailgate

Yeah ive pretty much decided this is the way im going to go. Will give me a good hiding spot for the rear parking sensors and camera. It'll came in handy when im reversing at boat ramps aswell

ey bro
shame about the dent

FYI

our utes came with 2 types of dif ratios

AUTO 3.07

MAN 3.46

we would both want 3.9's :)

I do alot of highway k's, although of late i've been car pooling to work so i guess 3.9's would be the go, i was gonaa go 3.7's but meh, do it right, first time every time :)

just noticed the two rear bars are different, i think the black one would look better cause it actually has a spot for the number plate to sit, and a spot for number plate light unlike the silver one, which may cause you headaches down the track with police/rego checks etc

Good point. The silver one looks more genuine, but that doesnt really bother me. I found out where he got it from, SSV. $600 or something along those lines for a unprimed bar + postage. I found a guy of ebay selling scratched genuine maloo rear bars for $555 + postage. I could always modify the genuine one?

Cheers man, i love it, i dont think ill ever part with it, unless someone offers me a black manual VE maloo lol

on a side note i've ordered the HID kit and some other little goodies, should be coming this week, install next weekend :D

Well a picture tells a thousand words so in this case ill let the photos do the talking. Just for the record, i made sure the settings on the camera (canon 400D) were the same for the before and after shots, no making one photo darker/brighter then the other. :)

Now my foggies look yellow, aswell as my highbeams, bring on the 50watt kit! :w00t:

Cheers mate, yeah im going to do my highbeams next, 50watt 6000k kit, thats a 35watt just to give you an idea on how bright the highbeams will be.

The parkers look great up close ay, really sharp. I changed my number plate lights to LEDS aswell but i got the wrong ones.

Dont know if ill do the foggies, if i put a HID kit in it will blind everyone as its not a focused beam like the headlights, so i just might try and get some blubs that are really white, dunno yet :)
