First of all ill just say that im not very car savvy

Only one place to start.

When i first had my car is was stock as rock.
Slowly learn what looks good and how do to things and JC forum guided me every step of the way.

But Pics!Where they hiding?

A vx has got to be one of the best cars to teach yourself on doing things, ive done everything my self to my vt but the paint
as for mods the 1st thing imo is lowering because once its low you get more of an idea in what to do when it comes to wheels, thats my opinion anyway, wheels when the car is high looks crap lol,

and as 666GMH said just commodores is one of the best places to learn, search what your after and guarantee you will find it

yea im happy with my VX, and from what ive seen around the forums alot of minor mods to make the car look alot better arent all that hard.

got my first two really problems out of the way today, took about 4 hours all up, but the cars looking alot cleaner now.. ill post up a few pics

alright so i had a bit of a dint in my boot just below the holden badge so i went on a mission trying to find a cheap like new boot lid.. finally got my hands on one from this great little place in smithfield who deals with commodore wrecks. while i was there i noticed he had a bunch of tail lights so he whipped me up a deal with the boot and the lights. im pretty sure they are a monaro knock off. heres how they look.

and at night

I want to get some headlights to match the rear so if anyone knows what i should look for let me know!

 

[SVNDR]

If anyone has any idea on what i should do next to tidy it up abit let me know!

Cheers

Normally i can't stand aftermarket lights but that combination looks pretty sweet.
Exhaust tip, Find them cheap and put it on yourself?
