Today i met NZ VLTURBO and bought the vl turbo Love it!!! Nice meeting you by the way . I came home gave it a clean, had a bit of tar on it so got rid of that and put my wheels on it. Here's some pictures with wheels. The guys i bought it off did a awesome job with it! Little engine update, with pod and new wiper liquid bottle. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

If you want a stock front bar and grille, i'll take that group a bar off you and it wont cost you a thing.

nice car, i love the paint job on it what colour is it by the way?
0 likes
It isn't an actual colour. But I call it 'oxygen blue' It's the factory calais blue which is called 'morning lake blue', with a touch more blue added. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

If you go into a paint shop, tell them what i did and leave them the petrol flap or something they should be able to match it up.
