Things are getting there slowly.. I got my rims back from the powdercoaters yesterday, and im still waiting on my centrecaps and 15 x 7 chrome trims. I ended up swapping a 15 x 6" stockie for a 15 x 7 at my local wreckers so i got a pair of fatties on the back. Heres some piccys, finally with a set of nice rims all round Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I haven't had an update for a while, mainly because I moved house about a month ago to a new suburb which doesn't have any interwebs currently...And as for the lack of progress with the vl...I was in Queanbeyan about a fortnight ago which for people that don't know Canberra, Queanbeyan is technically NSW and I apparantly got done for exiting a round about at 95 in a 60 zone which is total bs but it was 35 over the speed limit so I got an instant suspension in NSW. I then had to quit my job as i worked in Queanbeyan so I no longer have a work car so the vls the daily for now Currently looking for an apprenticeship, oh and i got chrome trims and centre caps, walls and a new Bosch AFM... there's an update yas, pictures soon

If anyone cares Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

That shock was in my mates VU commy ute, it happened just when he was driving along barton highway, he heard a clunk and ended up getting a tow. He had no load, no trailer or anything at the time so i'm tempted to stay away from gt monroes shocks after seeing this haha

yeah true , mines on standstill also.. yeah thats sus, thats turned me away from them.
