I still see swell marks Dale........... thats not satisfactory......... i want them to shine to the point they will blind you when you look at them............
Hahaha nar good job man, but i wanna see how your bays looking.

just my oppion but does that gold look similar to the mica gold on vts? if so i wouldnt man to many cars around with that colour possibly not vks but yeh id uno i love the ve purple myself
pht35e - yeah it does look a little similar but it is infact quite different..its lighter in the sun and the shade...
scotty - yeah mate id love to do the ve morpheus purple...although according to holden...preston motors...bayford and my paint shop...its a 3-layer...much the same as the cv8z gold...
wilson33 - u can do ur own panelwork mate...im self tought...its actually quite easy once u know how...all u need is confidence to get the ball rolling
went this morning with my assortment of dash peices and center console to trial fit them to the shell to see how much different they are between vk-vl...and to my suprise...the passenger half of the dash is exact...but the drivers side of the steering column is quite different...with different mounting locations between the two models...it will make for an interesting set of mounting brackets that i will fabricate...
