    Yeah I can see why, looks awesome! The two tone sets it off perfectly.

    I can see the logic though, 5l VS costing too much so you go buy a VZ SV6 ;)

    sure man, long story cut short, tapped the rear of my mates vn at about 10kms just a graze on the bonnet, thought id get the whole thing done.
    Got it done through a relative backyard quality beater and painter by trade for 20 odd years, doesnt work much these days gettin on in his innings. Family price basically just the cost of the paint.
