I love the nose snow shot as in your avatar, I'm another for the liking Karma as a color too. And I have not seen many aftermarket wheels that look good on a VE of any model, so yeah, the original SSV's suit it well.

Cheeky bugger :p ! Yea I love it when it is clean, but keeping it clean is a chore !!!!!! I was debating Thunder/Z-series wheels when I get new tyres or maybe even Redline rims ? What do you think ?

2011 redline rims. Can be bought new from dealers with factory rubber for $1600 per set or even cheaper on eBay for same. I just saw a thread with the VF SS that is sporting the same rims but in black, now you've discovered plasti dip, you could get a set and keep them polished forged, or change the color weekly till you find one that suits it best :)

Looking at your pics again, she looks very tidy with the ssv's that are on it, so I wouldn't worry too much about changing them, but if you did, the 2011 redlines would be what I would choose.

So I was thinking of continuing the theme down the centre console with a custom leather lid overkill ?

So I stuffed this bit up a bit , but i think it needs to come out anyways, not really sure if the trim piece is back in propery ? Any ideas ?

Also what is everyone's thoughts on these wheels ? To 'Luxury' for an SS-V ? I love em, but I don't know if they are SS-V material.

Each to their own mate, but that center console & rear vent surround just looks cheap & nasty. The dash looks ok though.
If you got done in Karma it would look ALOT better.
It just clashes with the colour of the car.

As long as YOU like it , thats all that matters though.....
