****PICTURE HEAVY***ALOT OF RANDOM DRIBBLING***
Hey there , I've always considered creating a post about my car but never really could be bothered/ wanted to.
However, no I'm at the stage where im happy with my car to actually post it on a forum i suppose.
I purchased the car back in December 09, she was only a few months old as it rolled off the production line in October, and this is what the car looked like upon purchase.
A few of my mates owned VE's also and one had smoked the tail lights which i didn't mind the look of. So on a day off from work i pulled out a can of VHC Nightshade and went to town, until i was happy with the shade created.
Turned out alright, to my liking anyway ( your opinions might differ)
For awhile the moneybags where definitely low and modifications weren't coming for awhile.
After some time i installed a sound system ( Due to the stock speakers being absolute dogshit) I decided to go with the POLK DB 6.5 Inch Splits powered by a 350w amp and a Kenwood 1000w Sub Dual Coil Powered by a Fusion 1000w Amp which i scored off a mate for $40 (BARGAIN). Using a Cache Processor which also came with a sub/bass controller which i thought was quite handy.
For AGES i searched the net for a set of rims i actually liked, I've never been into
" Advanti's" so that catologue never surfaced, Nothing against advanti because quite clearly they have a huge market for the Holden's, and they are doing excellent job, But i Really wanted something bold and simple, that didn't give off the appearance of a cheese cutter polished in chrome. Eventually i decided on sticking to Holden and began the hunt for a set of SSV's purely because it had what i wanted it was bold and look great on the commodores, i just needed to get them black.
I rang around abit to find a decent deal on getting the rims powdercoated until i received an offer from my dad to get them powdercoated for the cost of a carton of Jack Daniels (BARGAIN)
They turned out great i think, and suit the red perfectly, all i needed now was to lower it, which i just got today ! I have exceeded my image limit so i will post in another post!
