VE Series I SS Ute
Not a fan of black wheels in general.

Having said that, I wanted some genuine Gen-F Senator wheels, and the set I found in my budget range were powder coated black. I bought them to replace the fr22 Simmons I had on it earlier. Still not a fan of the black. What do you think?

If they were silver I'd be drooling right now. I really like that blue colour I think it's the same colour on a ute I looked at. I also really like chrome trims that only high end Holden's got.

Above the spear looks pants. I've used a few different products to give it some life but it def needs something more. Same on the other side, but will think of something...

Probs a bit OTT here....lol. I'd put it in situ but the gear surround is being glued.... again. That's one thing that I'll have to replace for sure.

The plan has always been to powder coat them silver, but **** always pops up that needs the cash more than my wheels need a real colour.

The colour of the car is regal peacock.
Pretty sure that colour came out with the VF and WN series.

Been doing the surround all morning with this being 3rd time lucky. Very fiddly in places but yeah I reckon heaps better than the spray can finish it had prior.

Oh I've been busy... :D I'm on a creative streak and all part of my madness, but can be constructive at times.

So this it totally blind. I have no idea what goes here other than 2 pieces I think, and can't see em doing much so I've made some blanking plates which fit. As I say I have no idea what is sposed to be here but might go have a look, could be way off...lol, and if so it looks heaps better till I get the right ones OK! ... :p

So yeah...

Your madness?
Hey Paul, just imagine how f@#ked up the previous owner was to do the sh1t he did to that car. Now imagine how less f@#ked up you are to do what you’ve done to it:)
