got most of the GE kit installed on the weekend, so I took advantage of the last day of "spring cleaning" water restrictions and washed my car Sunday arvo...

I like the aggressive look, but it's not over the top.

I know, it needs a cut and polish. the left hand rear pod needs to be modified to fit the dual exhausts... or I could just leave it off? I'm also considering TL/TW colour coded side moldings instead of the grey strips... what do you guys think?

i rekon it looks good man, have you got any better pics of the rear?

yeah, here's a couple from the other side...

you can see that the rear flare really needs something to connect to, but unless you look right at it (in the flesh) it's not too noticeable.

looking good wook, almost as nice as mine :P

Lookin' real nice there mate.
Very aggressive!
Need some more pics without the shadows though.

Interesting looking lady in Purple in the background. lol

Looks great, on the mouldings note - I recommend KL-KW, the touch of chrome is just enough to break the colour enough but not over the top. Looks amazing. Kind of like a calias

Looks nice and subtle just they way i like it
And yeh what's that purple chick in the bushes looking at? :P

yeah, yeah, yeah... next time I'm taking photos *away* from my house. the purple lady is checking out the dodgy red Celica parked in the driveway over the road. I should have taken some pics of that kit!! :sick:

not really interested in putting chrome strips on the car. most of my exterior mods are trying to down play the bling look.

my wife was impressed with this kit (which actually says a lot). not over the top aggressive, but you can tell it's got an aggressiveness to it that the stock bumpers/skirts don't.

I will endeavour to take some better pics (maybe with a camera, not a phone) tonight.

cheers,

vote one modded vrx rear bar

For some reason, that actually ties in very well, just my opinion but I'm not a fan of the GE kits, especially the front lip which to me looks like an old guy wrinkling his lips together.

But looks pretty good on that car I have to say, The black tail lights suit it perfectly and the NON-BLACK wheels are a refreshing change.
Defiantly a "subtle" looking magna but defiantly not one under the hood:cool:

as requested, more shots without so many shadows. and one with the purple lady in lol!

Ahhh,thats better pics, really looks the part now Wook. I like that "come hither" expression on the purple lady.

Car looks great mate, nice and subtle but still with an agressive edge, looks hot with those tails as well

Nice to see another tasty Canberra car up here mate :) And hey, it's nearly as nice as mine lol

Looks really good. :thumbsup:

KJ grill plus some fog lights would finish this off nicely, I think.

+1

looks awesome mate, love the agressive look without looking too modified to the untrained eye
classy

cheers for the comments guys.

I have a couple of ideas about the grille, but I don't think I'll be going for a KJ one. too much bling (and everyone's got one!).

as for foggies, I'm using the left hand vent for air intake, so that's a no unless I change the intake system drastically.

Nice work - understated, but purposeful

:)

On a this car, I agree, however an ei version might work - just the inner grill, leaving the surround black.
