Can anyone suggest a good exhaust place and tuner around Brissy....prefer close to Capalaba if you know of anyone?

Also does anyone know of any custom fabricators in Brissy who can re-work the Plastic front bumper/grill assembly for me?

Hi Mate,

VZ SS Guards are cheap as if you check out ebay or holmart up to $400 a set, you can pick up cheap SS Flutes (up to $140) these days just make sure you get indicator lens & looms - but the HSV ones still run a high price (up to $400 with lenes).

The bonnet work took a few weeks and all up with the guards, bonnet scoop, front bar, grill and bonnet redesign ran me at around the $2500 mark with paint and fitting.

I will be uploading some upto date picks soon as I am fitting up an Alpine DVD H/U & rear screens as well as IPhone mounting audio & video docking unit.

I ripped out the cloth Red & Black interior and replaced it with a Black Leather interior, fitted a Big brake setup with Curved slotted Front & Rears rotors as well to help pull it up.

Updated Pics

Hi everyone, just thought I would update the thread as I have ripped out the Red Cloth interior and replaced it with a Black SS Leather interior, I have removed the factory headunit and installed the W502E Alpine DVD Head unit with Rear Screens and IPod inter-connect. Fitted up 6.5" Kenwood HQ Splits up front & 7x10" in the rear with a 5 Channel Amp & Sub to come shortly.

I have also fitted a HSV Gauge pod with Red Faced VDO Gauges, the last couple of things left are a full set of Coil-overs and a set of VE GTS 20" once the rear guards have been pumped out so I can fit the 9.5" rears.

Yeah I though it was weird too, but I have a mate with a Series 1 SS as well with the same light mounted in the middle......will change that later down the track when I find all the bits to swap it over to a black roof lining.
