    Was just looking at your VS. I think it'd look great done the same way. I'd almost go for silver stockies on yours though. Personally I'm trying to achieve a black against white theme for my entire car, whereas you've got the door rubbers and bumper strip things removed and paint matched so the black and white is almost lost a little. Dunno though. Up to you to be honest. Trible B's car looks good with silver stockies.

    Doesn't look half bad actually, especially with those thinner whitewalls. My mags aren't actually too crash hot though so I'd be keen to get new wheels. Lots of gutter rash on them (from when the old girl was driving it) and they're starting to show their age. Either way I'm not changing the wheels or tyres until my current tyres are done (they're almost new) or I get some new springs.

    Gotta get venetians too ;)

    so ive decided the white walls with black stockies is a great idea, i hope you dont mind :p they wont be on all the time anyways :)

    cars looking good man, the interior looks good, but i recon go hire a steam cleaner and it will come up 20x better!

    That's awesome man, glad you've decided to go that style. Definitely a cool look and should look sweet on your Commo.

    Been meaning to steam clean the inside actually, there's like 8 years worth of kids bum sweat and mcdonalds softdrink over it and god knows what else before that... So scummy.

    I've still got the spoiler I removed if anyone is interested. Send me a PM and make an offer :)

    I'm not sure if it's even possible but I want to take off the gray trim piece between the tailights and give it a nice shot of black. Does anyone actually know how to remove this piece. I could only get the whole assembly off and my tiny brain couldn't find a way that the two parts could possibly separate.

    sweet car man, it's got potential :thumbsup:

    I might be wrong, but the gray trim has a few bolts holding it in from behind inside the boot lid?
    That's just what I saw from taking my tail lights out a few times, my trim was white already so I never had to take it out haha

    Yeah they hold on the whole assembly (gray trim, black surround and number plate lights ) on to the boot. I've got that off but can't find how the individual trim actually separates, that is if it even comes off at all. If need be I could just mask up the rest to paint but it'd be kinda dodgy then.

    The trim doesn't separate the black part, you just have to mask it.

    I would suggest buying another trim and painting that because I did mine and got sick of it, you might be the same man.

    Nah it's faded and looks pretty disgusting. So anything I do to it is an improvement.

    New pics after a good wash :)

    Good thing it wasn't mine :) haha

    Speaking of crashes. A fair while ago some knob ran a shopping trolley into my left front guard and left behind a fairly big dent. I just got around to knocking it out. There is still a bit of a crease left but at least it's not as bad as it used to be. I'd show some photos but it's honestly not that noticeable.

    I had to spend my gift cards on something and at least it covers the rust ;) I also picked up a new oil filter and a neat little socket and spanner set.
