For those that couldn't make it to Kumeu - you missed out! I went Saturday when it was absoulutely roasting! Awesome days entertainment for $10. I've uploaded a dump load of pics here: (dial up beware - over 120 pics!) http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v3.../Kumeu%202008/ (http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v381/NZ_GTS/Kumeu%202008/) Only scratched the surface of the cars that were there, and its slightly biased towards GM metal! But hey, who isn't?! There is also a few VL pics at the start. Check out the taillights on this Walky rep: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...mmodore_16.jpg (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v381/NZ_GTS/Kumeu%202008/vlcommodore_16.jpg) certianly different, but I think it kinda works too. Enjoy.

Those tail lights aren't something that I'd do, but all things considered they look quite good (the job looks pretty well done, most mods like that look so so bad). I think it'd look better with Berlina trim though.. but I think all Berlina rears look better Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Yeah I know Karl really well he said to me that he did the article for your car. Dont worry guys the new project is going well but slow over christmas hope to have it on the road for the end of 2008, keep up the vls as its good to see a following, cheers to you all Kris Quote: Originally Posted by RB30E whoever owns RIPV8s needs to be shot...what a disgrace!!!!!!!
