I have taken some more photos. I just cleaned up the inside and gave a good vacuum. Need to decide what colour for interior has to be some blue in there but i dont want to go over board.

I'd have to disagree with you there... They have a light meter (mostly the highway patrol or defect crew) that they measure it with. They wind your window down a bit and measure the amount of light coming through. I almost got done for it in Robe last year.

BUT if you do get pulled over for it and they try and defect you for it then just pull the front two tints off, then they cant defect you for it cos it's not on there :D Trust me my cousins been tinting for 18 years

As for the mods...

Just lower it a coulpe of inches, get a nice set of rims & it'll be a new car :)

Good luck & keep us posted

New ones are around $5-6k

In terms of 2nd hand, ranges from $2500-4000 depending on condition of rims, and if they come with tyres...etc.

Not exactly a "cheap" rim :coolpimp:
