Yeah those bloody trees jump out of no where, like these gutters we have, they come out of no where too!!!

speaking of gutters... about 3 weeks after i got my new wheels i managed to scrape a gutter... first thing i said was ':mad: ohh f*ckin no way... get f*cked... i better not have f*ckin f*cked my f*ckin wheels or im gunna be f*ckin pissed:mad:'. and yes, thats about how many 'f*cks' i said. so i drove off the gutter and looked at my wheels... and not a single mark on them! :D ;)

Lucky for you, in my area we have the gutters that curve up like the picture l uploaded, and hows this, one night l was driving with some friends, l go to do a u turn and the streets are so bloody small u have to either take 3 goes at it or do as l do and just go up the gutter, put it this way, l don't go up the bloody gutters anymore. The one time l try and do it l hit the bloody drain (theres only 1 per about 30 meters), scratching about half the circumfrence of my rim. F!ck l was pissed off that night, l think all of australia would have heard me yell f!ck that night. Its all good though, l need to replace the rims anyway :D!!

To debagde or not debadge

Thinking of taking the badges off the back of my commo, not sure if it would help the look of the car or make it look worse

here is a few pics i did in paint shop just to give you a rough idea

Any thoughts or suggestions

just gives you the look of the VN, i think that the badges on a standard VP look fine...but if you do her up like with a body kit then take em off, thats my personal opinion.

I have exactly the same commodore :)
I removed two badges and left round one in the middle simply because there are 2 small holes there....
The car looks heaps.... better go for it....

As I said...don't remove the one in the middle since you will have to deal with holes afterwards....

And of course be careful when you are removing them....

I used nothing but dental floss and home made brandy :) (rakija) hehhehehe

Use double-sided tape, silicone, contact adhesive, etc. Just stick em' back on.
