Update:

the sound system got a slight upgrade..
2 boss 10" Subwoofers.
1 "deathwish" powerful 780+ watt Amp

Clarion 12" + 2 boss 10" Subs bridged into the amp.

Subs only positioned like that for show.​

I also sold off the VN Rims, now running my Inteceptors with retreads.

Once more an update;

Now that I have a propper paying job, and im getting nicely into it; here are the proposed plans for 12 months or so:

2 12" subs powered by ample amp (most likely JL Audio Comp subs)
Full neon interior kit (2 under front seats at front, and 2 under front seats at rear)
Lowered, lows or superlows
17" ROH Fury rims.
PaceMaker Extraction.

hey Tr3nt, congrats on the job, I know first hand being on the breadlines eats you away inside if you're bustin to work.

VR looks good. got plans for engine and body work, or is that for tomorrow to decide?
How resiliant is the paint you've used for the interior ie dirt/scuffs etc?

Nice looking car mate, good job :) It's looking pretty cool, though ya might wanna have something holding down your subs :p

If ya want for now... you could buy a 2ndhand set of mags there's cheap one's about, just to save cash.

thanks guys..

The paint is alright with dust and stuff like that, if it doesn't have a gloss finish it can and most probably will chip easily, and without a gloss finish it can look a little dull..

plans:
just mainly exterior work, then maybe extraction, rims, lowering.

Ok.. Good for an update..
Last night.. coming home from checking bank.. pick up a mother of a stone in the power wheel (mind you, all subs/head unit out of car ready for new products).. stone pissing me off.. I span the wheel (chirp) to get the thing out... didn't come out.. driving along at 70/75k out she comes and BANG.. tyre blowout.. (see attached).

I have now got the new head unit in. (camera took a **** image, so im not gonna post it up).

See attached; subs in boot. Boot lid was up about 6 inches so the neon would come on.. but im thinking of wiring the bootlight/neon to a switch which will also power the 4 under seat neons.

2 nights to install/configure (considering I work from 11:45am to 8pm)
1200W of Subwoofer
Around 800W of amp
11 goddamn fuses blown!!

lol smartass :p
RACV (who was a wanker anyway) thinks it might be starter motor telling me "You're stressing me you asshole.. keep it up and I'll just stop working".

What got me was the fact I had my keys in my lap for about 10 mintes, tried to move my car, car turned over wouldn't fire, tried again and it just died (battery wise).
