    Talking My VR6 project

    Hi, I got myself a virus about christmas time to play with.
    Here is a few pics of what she looked like. I did not take pictures straight away, so these are after I had the tint done.





    So over a month has past since I got her. Had a few problems with a leaky radiator, so the radiator, thermostat and fan switch has been replaced and the temperature is spot on now.
    Here is a few pics of what she looks like now, had a bit of painting done on bonnet, fenders and overall touch up. The car is a bit dirty but I wanted to get the pics up





    It still has a few kinks I need to iron out, but all in all I'm happy.
    Here is a pic of my 2 baby's together

    Any ideas or opinions guy's, let it rip

    So with that said, i'm liking the maroon and black theme, looks quite tuff huh, though i'm not a fan of aftermarket lights (spesh not angel eyes and leds, sorry), like the grill and it's sitting at a nice hight (with coilovers?) though to acheive a tuffer stance look into purchasing some spacers to bring the rims out a bit more looks to be a bit of a gap on the front lip too?

    It's a clean looking vr with lots of potential, keep the updates coming mate

    Hi, It is coilovers. I did not want the LED fogs but it was all that they had in stock so I had an impulse buy. The offset on the rims are wrong, I tried to get spacers but could not find the correct ones, had to do some grinding on the brake calipers to make them fit. Not the smartest thing I've done.
    It has needs some finishing touches, like the gap in front spoiler, centre of bumper is too low, the driverside indicator is a bit off and the list goes on and on.
    Just got some sound last night at the alberts midnight sale so will try and get it installed before the WA cruise next weekend

    ok, lol, impulse buys are often regretfull, I know and your not the only person i've heard of shaving the caliper carriers to fit wheels! sounds like it'll keep you busy, gl with the lil fix-ups
