VE Lumina 3.6L
Black Lumina 2007

Coming from a turboed coupe that I owned before, I was in search for a more room car that has some balls under the hood, and I loved the new style of these cars (Commodores badged as Chevy Lumina in Middle East). Here it is.

Originally: 2007 Black Lumina LS (V6 Alloytec) ... equivelent to VE Commodore Omega

Looking good mate, nice looking interior, quad pipes look good too. Think you need 20's or something on there though. Might try and get a Chevrolet Badge then match with the bowtie. Nice looking car least you prolly got cheap fuel over there to thrash through it lol.

Good looking car mate, really love the interior. Where do you get your aftermarket / spare parts from over there?

Great job so far, the interior is lovely, the Quad pipes are awesome and I agree with "Brownie82" some 20"s would really set it off.
I'm not a fan of re-badging commodores, either leave them original or take the badges off... no badges on the back of VE's makes them look cleaner (but I'm not bias ; ) ) In the end each to their own. : ) you should look at getting either the Berlina tail lights or the SSV tail lights.
Cheers, Bronnie

Thanks pals for comments.

For aftermarket parts I'm getting them so far from Aus, direct through manufacturers as in Xforce & Eibach case, and some from holmart online shop. International shipping cost sucks like hell ... but no other option in here.
