Dunno about "vL_" but I'm talking cars that come with the gauges in the cluster, such as VL's (SL's excluded which is why I chucked a calais cluster in mine), so I wouldn't have to put a wank factor 5" wogclock on my dash, what can putting in gauges tell me that my cluster can't? Maybe if I planned to run my car at 6k rpm in a drift battle for 20 minutes I'd buy a gauge, but otherwise? No.

19-07-10, 20:37 GMT+10#84 make another thread to argue about guages. i personally dont have a problem with aftermarket guages as long as there inside the car!!! just my 2 cents
RM Williams bullhorn stickers = fail. anything RM williams or other bogan sheek brand car accesories just fails in general imo

Oh you can bet on it! When funds allow I'm sure you'll prove yourself right. But we're talking about N/A's with gauges aren't we

so if a friend of yours had a workshop and had these types of stickers you would ask for money to advertise his business on your car that he works on and maintains for you
your a nugget you went a bit too far with the 50kw remark
otherwise i agree with the other comments

i don't think thats what he meant, i think he is refferring to people who put workshop stickers on their cars for the sake of making it look cooler kinda in the same way you see some skylines with shopping list's on their front gaurds.

Though my biggest pet hate is newer style bodykits on older cars eg, vy clubsport bodykits on clapped out vr's seriously you wasted your Fu*kin money! that goes for chev badges too if you want a chev go to america or import one putting the badge on your commodore doesn't make it a chev even if it has an LS engine be proud to drive somethin designed and built in australia!
I agree about the chevy badges and the new bodykits on the older cars, when i first saw a old commodore with a newer model bodykit on it i was like wtf!? lol

agree, they're one step up from Tonka toys
pink numberplates on girls cars..... why do that !!!!!!!
expensive custom number plates on a car with basic roadworthy issues, if you can afford to pay custom plate fees surely you also afford new tyres and brake light globes
boot spoilers....found on almost every new car in Western Sydney regardless of make or model. The rest of the car is totally stock but a boot spoiler seems a must have item in Sydney's west
and don't know if it's been mentioned prev but those bogan 'Aussie Pride' stickers on cars esp when they are in exotic hard-to-read fonts

That must be to make up for all those cars out their with the entire body kit except for the boot spoiler. Would rather see the car with the boot spoiler only than the other way around.
