Hey, thought i'd share my Project. :)

Colour: White
Engine: 304 EFI
Transmission: Auto
Exhaust: VN SS exhaust system with 4" dump
Interior: Was tidy. lol
Wheels: 16" AusCar i think..
Stereo: JVC head unit, 2x JVC 6" way, 2x 3-way Kicker 6x9's and a 850 WATT BOSS 4 Channel Amp
Suspension: Lowerd, unsure what springs..
Exterior: SV5000/SV89 Front Bar, Letter box grill and Calais Taillights.
Misc: Stage 5 computer chip and not much else

It was my dads car, :undead: and i hopefully i can turn some nice outta it.
I plan on making it like a SV89 replica in away.. But resprayed in black or alpine white and white interior. :)

Cheers man.
I used water proof led strips I got off eBay for like $14 for a 5 meter roll. And stuck them in the slight groove under it. And ran the wires through the door

I like the door light idea, will look good when car is parked at night, showing off :)
I think you should try to get the interior as close as possible to factory sv89, would look sick and most people won't know the difference.
Good luck with it all!

Nah, the bt1 look is boring, and I love the sv89's. So I'm doing a sv89 exterior but resprayed in black,
I VE been working on white interior atm, I was originally thinking about putting that reddish colored interior in or tan for another VN
