Hi Craig,
As in the VCM system? I need to get my arse into gear and record the sound again because last time, there was soo much wind noise..it was distorted. I'll get around it it soon. I absolutely love the sound! Deep note and it is very quiet on idle and even when cruising but bold when you accelerate. Exactly what you want! :)

Cheers

Y try,
mate, thanks for the headsup re Protek. :beer chug: Met with John today and he is a really nice guy and showed me what he did with another SSV ute. They actually cut/trimmed it rather than trying to roll it because he said it was very tricky due to the paint type. He's going to do mine on Thursday! He is also going to be fitting the Pedders coil overs when I get some cash! He gave me a better price than any of the Pedders service centres! :yahoo:

loku16, that does look great! I was looking at getting a Wagoon for more practicality, but you can't get a factory sunroof and I love the roof (although I think the VY's was better and less noisy and I still had a sunglasses holder...idiots! :( )

Anyways it looks tops!! Nice Work!

Yeah mate, I use a Canon 5D MKII with a 24-70 2.8L lens. Photography is a hobby really :) So you don't like my Chev badges :p the salesman actually asked me whether I wanted them as an option!

haha nah not a fan of the chev badges..as per my display picture i like to keep things as aussie as possible..be proud of what we have. still a great looking wagon regardless. Im starting to get into photography in the last 12 months just havent justified spending $1000-1500 on a 400d or something yet.

Thanks for the compliments gents. I'll get some shots soon of the calipers (when I wash the car). I was going to paint them red but i'm glad I went with the black paint. It blends in really well.
I might also go back to the lion badge after I get it painted black. But going to black out the gold in the chev badge first and the chrome strip in the front grille. See how that looks and then if I'm over it, I'll go back to the holden badge! :D
