VY SS Ute
This is my new ride.

Pretty stock atm, I brought as is (chev badge and all) which Im torn if I should change it or not. Let me know what people think.

But other than a cat-back exhaust and lowered its fairly factory.

Furure mods - VE GTS rims, all Eclipse sound system, extractors and MAYBE a GM Motorsport cam kit.

Excuse the crappy photos, have not had a chance to get her out to take some good shoots. Hopefully with summer coming up I can soon.

Yeah thanks trucko.

I went with the good ol' Holden badge with a twist. Its chrome, just thought it might be a bit different, came up great.

Here are some new pics of the new mods!

mate it's an ss. unless someone has gone to all the trouble of changing seats, dash, fog lamps (ss logo), all badges, and so on... last owner might have changed lights, come to think of it they do look a lot newer than the rest of the ute... no stone chips in them, i dont know... what should the vin say, that will tell the truth:)

yeah thanks guys.

No way Im putting chrome wheels on. I was thinking about going the other way. Black rims with a chrome surround and black tinted windows. Will look as tough as it sounds.

Just brought a set of 3'' extractors, stainless steel, cant wait to get the rest of the exhaust fitted!

I didnt realise that the lights werent SS. If anything the last owner took them off to keep because the ones that are on it now have a lot of fading on them. But If I didnt notice then it doesnt bother me too much. :)
