Hey everyone, thought I might throw up some pictures and information about my VL.
It's a 5-speed Berlina and it's my first car.
I've had it for a year and a bit.
When I got it the paint was pretty ordinary so I had it re-sprayed. The previous owner had converted it to manual and put in a turbo lsd diff.
The only mods I have done are CAI and XF throttle body. I have also painted the dash and doors to match.
Future plans are to turbo it but probably won't be for a while.
Pictures just after I had it sprayed with my cousin and uncle's VL's

nice subs! they will hammer with the right wiring and amp behind them. i havbe to ask though why paint the interior? i had painted doorpods for a while and didn't realise how bad they were until i replaced them. you look to have used either the same paint or at least the same colour as i did. otherwise looks nice get some berlina pinstriping though would look nice.

Thanks for the comment guys.
SIroller: I painted the dash first cause it was gray and the rest was brown. Then i painted the doors just to balance it out. It looks alot brighter in the photos, but i like it.

Was it a quick respray? The paint is peeling off the bar mould.
