"No vl is complete without Photoshop" What tyres you running on the front n rear mate?

They are fairly cheap sunful sf-886 245/35/19s not a bad tyre for the price I haven't adjusted the panhard yet, so get a bit of rubbing but gotta fill up the new long range tank and re-set it, ---------- Post added 12-11-14 at 21:01 ---------- Quote: Originally Posted by Turismo [View Post] "No vl is complete without Photoshop" What tyres you running on the front n rear mate?

Awesome I have the same tyres on my ssv's hope they fit $440 a tyre suck monkeys.[COLOR="Silver"]

thought id start cleaning up the holes in the bay, ive never done any work like this before so all advice is good advice see how it all comes along (https://imageshack.com/i/p7CEnADtj) (https://imageshack.com/i/pdSK9U4bj) (https://imageshack.com/i/p7vjlXMIj) (https://imageshack.com/i/p8vUQQFjj) (https://imageshack.com/i/kpzUmYiRj) (https://imageshack.com/i/p4z1ok9Zj) bit of slag fell right on top of the lhf brake line an burnt a hole in it so wasted about 3 hours pulling it off one of the spares at the back of a mates place but in the end got it changed, what a pain lol but typical rookie mistake!!! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

It's all about giving it a go. I'm not sure about welding side of things but were you grinded the horn holder off you could sand it down with 80, 180, 240 then 320 and apply filler only a few mills thick. Sand down with 600 prime it sand with 800 and paint. But I'm sure there is tech threads or you already know how to sand n paint. Also I found a quick spray can cause lots of work cleaning up overspray. So I Borrow one of the missus bed sheets lol good as a quick throw cover. Looking good. Did you pull some moulds off your mates doner vl??

Lol he's got a turbo Berlina and a couple of other vls But I steal everything off his cars lol from trim bits couple of n/a autos radiator diff exhaust and the motor in mine pretty much whatever breaks in mine atm,ha ha The brakes off the turbo will end up on me calais too bahaha Yeah a fire proof blanket or throw sheet is a must next time everything made quite a mess but a lesson learnt too I guess

Looking at the pics form towns V C4C11 your VL is the only one without a monster Tacho! Haha it's like the others VL drives forgot that most vls came out with a tacho dash. Or they need a soft light.

Haha it's like the others VL drives forgot that most vls came out with a tacho dash. Or they need a soft light. lol yeah id love a monster tacho, however cops r really easy going up here if you don't have too much reason to pull u over, im really liking the drivability of mine atm, ive even consiterd taking the 19s off and going 18 or 17 simmons, and I do put the wife n 2kids in it every sat or sunday for a cruise so don't need the hassle! id maybe prefer a shift light by itself one of them ones that dosent require the tacho, Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
