VE Ute Series II Perfect Blue
So i bought some SSV chrome fog light surrounds on ebay for $65.

It was a pain getting them in and I had to remove both wheels but I got it in the end and saved myself a fair bit as Holden quoted me $500-$700

Hey man that looks cool as! I want to plasti-dip my interior but because I have white car I will have to do it in White and thats going to get dirty as I think. You should get an E3 steering wheel to man!

What's wrong with the first surroundings you got?

Hey mate, you should still test it out, it would look really good and it should stay fairly clean as long as grubby fingers arnt touching it all the time. It holds up pretty well too.

The first ones where just a cheap stick on moulding that i thought might look good but after awhile the weather got to it and it started to peel off. bugs and dirt got caught in i and it started to look tacky. When i saw these up on ebay i bought them right away :)

I would get the E3 steering wheel but at $400 + its way to much.

loving the chrome bits and painted blue dash mate, looks really clean and tidy and sets it off nicely

I was putting much stress on the actual car itself, i was mainly just trying to get access to the back cos i had to remove the fog light which is only a few screws. Its actually pretty steady if its on flat ground but if i was doing other work id put something to hold it up.

Awesome mate, make sure you link me to it if you plan to post it up here :)

Thanks mate, ive just started to paint the inner door handles blue aswell too.
