There's a few good places around the Botany Road area in the back street. I've seen some of the jobs they've done and the colour looked soo good. There's atleast 5 paint/panel shops around the back there. 2SUS in Punchbowl are good, but i think they'd be expensive. Queen Street if you wanna get the paint job for the stickers . Queen St do some good paint jobs but ive heard they are a bit pricey Also if your gonna do a colour change you should change the engine bay colour otherwise it'll look so out of place (unless your engine bay is black like GAS747 and Nukz) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

2SUS isn't expensive, not by a long shot. If you're serious about the work go and see a few places Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

If there's one shop in this state that knows how to paint VLs it would have to be Bas! I reckon he's painted more than Holden did, now!

Go to someone who has experience with VL's, and know's all the rust spot's/how to take off trim bit's properly etc. Custom Bodyworks and Bellevue Bodyworks are two shop's that know VL's.
