His stuff is really good and looks factory when fitted.Whatever you do, DO NOT use those bloody brushes at the car washes.Just go to them late at night with your own bucket and a few microfibre washing cloths and take your time.The damage you can get from just 1 wash with a dirty brush is not worth the risk.Either that or just take it to a professional car cleaner like Final Inspection in Brunswick once a month for a great wash.Congrats on the purchase.

Might take the bucket down though my self and do it at night.So far Im loving this car, and just cant wait to find a reason to have to go out for a drive...like forgetting to grab something on the way home from work (on purpose), knowing that the missus is going to make me go out later and get it from safeway..!!!Anyways...thanks again for all the comments. I'll post pics soon..! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aftermarket sound is much better quality. I've got standard sound, but in my XT before it was written off it had about $3000 worth of stuff in it and sounded awesome. Its going into the turbo soon enough though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
