Looking good Troy. One thing I would change though is the wheels. IMO it needs fatter wheels with an offset that fill the guards out. Check out some Euro forums and see what I mean, it would look so much tougher if it had some wheels that sat flush to the guards :)
 
these are 18 x 8's had 20 x 8.5's but it was scrubbing the front guards at half lock and with a big lack of rubber was a crap ride, sacrificed the looks abit for comfort
 
Just finished this on christmas day, nice pressie to myself.
Wrapped in matte grey metallic vinyl. Took 4 days to do.

looks sick man how did you get no creases in it? its certainly different!!!!:kick:

Skill haha nah just a bit of practice mate, the vinyl these days is made for wrapping. Air release adhesives/super conformability etc makes life easy ;)

Look awesome mate seen the progress on instagram, How do you do it mate? Is it easy to scratch?

Check some youtube vids on application, they are good for getting an idea on how its done. You really need to do it yourself though as everyone has a differing
technique.
Its pretty much like the protector coating on topps finest cards so it will scratch but it protects the paint underneath which was the main reason I did it
 
My new ride is on its way from tassie. Should be here next week. Will get some pics up. Im so looking forward to it. Never owned a v8 before. Hint hint ;)

Yeah i was really looking for a SSV wagon coz they look pimp, but just couldn't get a deal done that i was happy with. (kms, price, year and colour)

The deal im getting through a car yard seems to good to be true but ive only put a grand down and it's still pending my inspection. Will definitely be giving the previous owner a call just to make sure.
