lookin forward to watching you do your car up bro. from wat i can see at the moment i would change side indicators to clear ones, remove mudflaps as you do not need them and looks better, also remove weather sheilds if you want (although they come in handy when raining and you have no aircon) looks better without it.

18% tint would look sweet with a dark coloured car. i had 5% on my old vs wagon and at night was really hard to see out and quite dangerous actually. wont be getting that again.

first thing is as above, change the side indicators, delete mud flaps and weather sheilds.
get some series 2 taillights with the clear indicators, or a vx garnish and some monaro taillights.
with tint dont get 5% lol, hectic dark. 15-20% is pretty good.
with the 17s i reckon try and get your hands on some factory ones (VX SS rims look good, or some VY SS rims).
and if you can go SSL front and SSSL rear, trust me SL's arent that low.

ran into some trouble trying to get mud guards off...

rears came off no worries but with the fronts it seems ill either need a screw driver less than 5cm long or ill need to take the front wheels off to get the mud guards off... anyone had this problem?


yeah forgot to add, clear side indicators and series 2 tailights are on the list of things to do. cant wait to get stuck into it!

Just jack the car up and take the wheels off, no problems at all!
