Nice car mate, the one thing that really needs doing is getting rid of that monstercar stance!! keep it up though!
lol you guys must be looking at the first pic in post #1 to say she needs lowering... that was how i got her! The 2nd pic in post #1 is after a bit of work and with 18's, and how she's lookin now is first pic in post #12, riding on steelies, but thats only until new tyres and wheels go on in a couple of weeks.
I know what you meant about the monstercar stance though swordsy, i practically needed a step ladder to get in the thing!
keep me posted mate i wanna see some pics, i have to get some dings machined out of mine! is it expensive? and then all 4 repainted!, anywho post a pic of a chrome grill up i wanna see lol
Mattgreen, the price for wheel repairs depends on the extent of the damage, i've only ever spoken to one guy about this stuff and quoted about $140 per rim to repaint, providing any damage on them isnt to excessive. With the chrome grills i was originally going to go for the open type, but spoke to holden earlier today and they said it could be $100+ for the pair so i thought f*** that, so maybe i'll settle for the calais ones with the vertical bars in them:
(New Genuine) Holden Commodore VR-S GRILLE LEFT CALAIS, hopefully they'll look alright, better than the matt silver ones i've got atm.
Those VE wheels will look awesome on it mate. I still like the old SS-Z wheels though, wouldn't mind getting a set for mine.
Nick, i really hope they do look good mate! I havent seen any vr/vs with these rims so hopefully it'll be a little unique and look phat too lol! I didnt wanna never see my SSZ rims again, thats why my gf has them on her vs. I think they go better against her car colour (rubens mica) too. All she needs is to lower it haha. Anyway i reckon they'd go great with your colour and kit, im so envious of your s pack kit, i wish i had one!
Those wheels will look better on my Gemi lol.. so next cruise in Feb we might see em? btw you thought about getting those clear headlights like on Amanda's car?
MR Vee Zed, come off the grass mate, they prob wont fit the gemi! Besides they'll be on my car before next cruise so ya cant have em :bang: oh and depending on whats out there + if i can be stuffed i might get a level 3 dash put in
Have ya got your SV6 back yet? And yeah i want some of those altezza headlights so badd, they look awesome on amanda's (gf) car aye... Thing is i've got other things to get that are more important (tyres, gearbox rebuild) before them. Cars are annoying like that.
needs dumped, least you wont get done for too low
Cruzncommo, it's dumped on supers in front, ultras in rear... with the 15" steelies my cat scrapes on speed humps so i reckon i prob would get done for too low lol. The 19's will actually lift her up a bit, i know the 18's did.
Oh and in other news, while i was at holden this morning i asked about the vy ss / monaro pedals... $50 each pedal! I should have got them last time i asked when they were $35 each. $200 for a set of pedals is a bit rich for my blood atm. Apparently the prices on spare parts are going up to factor in the rising petrol prices eg freight of goods. Man oh man, i'm gonna try and find them somewhere cheaper.
Cheers guys :thumbsup:
