    I got it repainted silver after the slight bingle I had back in December...I'm keeping it silver for the time being. It was starting to become a bit of a cop and bogan magnet, so now it is a bit more of a sleeper. It is also a sh*t tin easier to keep clean too!!
    On a funnier note, I have no front Number Plate(due to it being buggered in the accident)...Out of the 20 odd police cars that passed me from the opposite direction on my way home, exactly NONE had a second look at me as they drove past. I am very surprised.

    I think it looks nice all in silver (but don't tell Rhys)

    The coppers in QLD are pretty relaxed, they only ever seem to pull over commodores.

    Due to "The Ville" being an Army town, the main cars up here owned by Defence members are Commodores, Falcons and Skylines, with a bit of a smattering of Silvia's and Land Cruisers. We have to the Highway cops out alot, and in the last few weeks, the Brisbane "Hoon Squad" has been around too.

    I rotated my wheels. I'm very impressed by the tread wear rate I'm getting out of these tyres...The Conties have nothing on these, and I would have had to replace them 10,000km ago.

    I've found the ride is only slightly stiffer than stock, so still very comfortable.

    However its definitely more 'jiggly' than stock. But that is a result of keeping the stock shocks. Its not too bad, but definitely noticeable from the drivers perspective.

    The springs combined with shortened shocks would be an unbeatable package of ride and looks.
