[BOT096]

Hey what's every one think about painting my fog light surrounds white ? I just don't really think that bit of grey blends in ?

[Pixy Angel]

do it would look right I think.

[BOT096]

Does any one know how to do a quick photoshop or something of it ?

[Bellato]

What about black? check out trainer's g series! Looks really good

[BOT096]

Yer I have seen that wicked looking thing ! But his looks good because he has all the other black bits, but I want to try and keep as much black of at the moment while I have white wheels

Depends. I recommend getting HID foggies without a doubt.

their really good. plus they are pretty much plug and play and you put them into the same slot and just twist and it locks in.

if your gonna get normal bulbs for your headlights like the normal H4....

this kits pretty decent. led T10s, whiter than stock globes, and white hibeams. their not bad.

for HID for your standard headlights

its up to you bro. I reckon personally get it repainted to a chrome to match your trims around your grill and all that because remember, its a luxury car and its meant to stand out as a luxury car. im gonna get my painted in chrome or even chrome dip it. because at the end of the day, we bought a luxury car that's meant to look classy, we dont want it to look sporty, we rather make it classy sleeper so for example, an SV6 p plater rocks up next to us and ya know hes got a loud exhaust blah blah blah, oh look growler cold air intake, lowered, still looking classy stock with rims, plant the foot and cya SV6 nugget. but in the end its your call.

Because at the end of the day, its what under the bonnet, and how well you look after it which makes it run smoother, faster, more efficient and in general better. like premium full synthetic oil, a full flush of your ZF gearbox, our gear box is expensive to service roughly 900. im going to do a full flush of my gearbox personally, the stock fluid is Lifeguard6 or something like that, im swapping it for the transmax ZF gearbox fluid which is dear'er but alot of people who drag spec or track spec their gearbox use it, I was recommended it if I wanted to give my gearbox a really good workout to use that fluid.

also like check your brake fluid, if needed flush it, better sparkies, better ignition leads, bigger brake rotors for our cars, we can use the XR6T or the G6ET brake rotors, all we need is a bracket which will move our calipers to fit into the right spot, drilled and slotted rotors, good brake pads, make sure the coolants always full.

all the small things (yes I know blink 182 reference haha) we can do to our car which are minor, can make a very large difference to how well our car performs. My opinion spend the extra bucks on top quality engine oil and all these things.

Think of it like this. treat your car as your child. you want whats best for it and for that to happen you gotta fork out abit of extra dosh.

What did you do about high beams did you hid them as well ?

I would just lower it on coilovers and 20's and leave the rest stock but where would all the fun be ... Do what everyone does when their young sink heaps of money into it then regret it 5 years later 98% of people on xr6 turbo forum including myself lol
