Lol I just saw what your last car was and what you have now... I have just traded in my 2011 Cruze Sri and brought a my15 sv6 sports wagon in spitfire green.

Very wise choice my friend hahaha. That cruze i had was terrible, all the electronics were starting to ### out so we got rid of it as soon as possible haha. Had it sold the week before our wedding and dropped it to him on our way to the honeymoon lol... spent the entire time we had it counting down the days before getting into a commodore again haha.

Funny i've had a 2013 Sri-V cruze and i've never had an issue with it at all

i will be upgrading to a VF ssv though , interested to see the paddles if you have some pics mate! looks like a nice upgrade

 

[waynebatt]

i'll take a couple of pics when I'm in it next for you... funny thing though is that they don't actually work yet hahahaha....

Drove out of the dealership and tried to use them to no success, went back and asked if i was doing it wrong. Told me they'd look into it. Turns out that because the MY15 Storm is such a new model the computer doesn't have the software to enable the paddles just yet. CRAZY I KNOW haha. Said it would be a week or so then they'll call and get me to drop it in to get it sorted.

I'll let you know how they go once they actually work hahaha

Heres a few pics of the paddles upgrade. Will be very happy with them once they work haha. They have a very nice feel to them when depressed, don't feel cheap at all which is a good sign.... Also, picked up the chrome window trims today. Will hopefully get them on tomorrow and post some pics.

Chrome trim around the windows went on today. Was a pretty tricky little adventure with most of the interior trims in the boot space needing to be removed to get to the back of the rear 1/4 windows. Was fortunate enough to have my smash repairer mate with me, also needed his little de-Clip tools to get the other trims off the doors and roofline....... On a side note, i now have a full set of black window trims and rear 1/4 windows sitting round if anyone is after a set to black out their ssv or redline.

Loving the chrome on the Prussian Steel.

 

[waynebatt]

thanks mate, as do i... Stoked with the result. I think its one of the few colours that the chrome suits really well.
