red sv6 ute

[metalpledge]

hey adam thanks heaps man the scoop with the wings which is what i have was $1850 supply fitted and if you send them your fuel cap they can colour code it off that and get it painted then it can be fitted to your car in a day but if you dont want to do that it takes 3 days for then to colour code and everything.i got it from my local walkinshaw place did an excellent job while i was at walkinshaw the guy actually showed me a red ve gts he had in that he was doing a cam package for and it had one of the fibre enhancement ( ebay) copy scoops and it looked very cheap the paint had chipped from the plastic and up the top near the window you can acutally see a 20mm gap between the scoop and the bonnet so can can see the bolts which looked horrible especially on a gts . so yeah sorry to make the reply heaps big just thought id give you some info cause i was thinking of getting one of ebay because of the price.
but yeah man hope that helps you have a really nice ute good work man

Hi Metalpledge,

First off, have to say that your Ute looks great!
Especially now it has the Holden Lion back on it...

Just wondered if you made the Holden badges black or if you had them done by someone?
If you did them, could you give me a run down on the process?

I just bought a new SV6 Series II in Black and would like to turn mine black too.
Im not really a fan of the bold chrome look.

Keep up the mods Mate,
Cheers, Cory

very very jealous mate, looks great.

just wondering if you can get projector headlights for a SV6? would look mad with a set of HID's in them.

also what made you want to tint the tail lights? i reckon the red blends in with the body, and now you need to buy new lights to sell it lol.

thanks for the compliment man,
yeah man ive been looking at getting some for a while just need the money first you can just pick some up off ebay from a used clubsport or something.
i just really like the red and black look + not many VE's have them .
