Very tidy and allot of well done mods. Any future plans?

At this stage im going away at easter so cant really spend much in the next few weeks but once i get back and that looking at getting darker tint, white mirrors and colour coding the grill and skirts white, some little things like engine cover painting etc:

As for any new major mods im not sure whats next to do, the original plan was for it to be a nice neat daily driver but im starting to get the itch to go a bit further and try and transform it into something really nice. Just not sure where to start

I havnt looked at tail lights yet, got rego and a few thing in the next week or so, so for the next couple of weeks mods will not be happening after that i wanna get a nice dark tint and i need new headlights mine are fades to hell after that tail lights will be on the agenda depending on weather i can pick up a cheap VX boot garnish i think will determine what tail lights i get.


Also whilst im here new pics from the debadging on the back garnish and also now with the white grill.

+1 for removing the ugly VT boot n puttin on a shiny VX one.

Also if you can get enough cash together the best mod after the boot garnish...for me, would be a full SS bodykit. would make it look miiinnt, but ur on ur p's n i remember how it was on p's...probly strapped for cash.

Yeah exactly mate, got laid of work last week so in dire need of a new job and stuff, plus rego was this week so mods will be on the slow side for a bit but i wont give up hope. definately going to look at the bodykits, i think thats why im hesitant about what lights to get etc: i wanna pick the right combination that will suit well not go and buy headlights or taillights that dont match the kit well but the tint and garnish are the major ones i need asap
