My 03 Series 2 VY Acclaim

[vychick88]

how much did putting the DRLs in set you back? just wondering cos i've got a vy ute and always wondered about it? thanks

they cost me $60 and i had them wired up by my mechanic to the parker globes for free (because the mechanic is where i work) but if you get them make sure you get headlight globes that have a similar colour otherwise it doesnt look good

what size rims are you going to go for ? im abit worried about putting 20's on mine because i live in a small town with **** roads so I might go for 19's

im gonna stick with 18" wheels as its the best for all round looks and performance because 20" wheels on a vy v6 kills the performance (both power and braking) and 19" wheels will be better but the cost of decent tyres for grip is scary

for grip in 19" tyres get achillies atr sport or what ever they are called, i run them on my vz ute, an its great, they grip really well, well not so much now but they are nearly bald haha

hey man, mind if I ask you what headlight globes / parkers your using? and where abouts you bought your drls from? ive been looking for that blue / white look for ages about some narva 90+ blue and within like 3 months they look yellow again I did a comparison to stock globes and its barley anything.. waste of money

 

[Jezza]

these are the globes im using HB4 White Head Light Bulbs + FREE LED Parker HID/Xenon | eBay and they lasted about a year which i consider ok for the price compared to other brands which last about the same

and the drls i bought ages ago and cant remember the site where i got them from

A year seems pretty good, they look so blue compared to the narva globes i have but the narva have a higher colour temp.. its weird deffo gona go these when mine end up failing.. cost me over 100 bucks for low / high beams.. which is annoying when it doesnt even look how you want it to lol anyway cheers for the advice man btw.. ride looks sweet
