They just keep looking better with every update. The 19's finally do justice to the rest of the meaty package. Big motor, big bulge, big stripes, big noise and finally big wheels..............HELL UNLEASHED..........Enjoy, it looks fantastic.

Here’s a few pics of the beasts that I took today. I didn’t get much of a chance to drive it , but I will try to get some more interesting shots on the weekend.

Cheers, Danny

Suggestion, buy a pet seat cover, these have a waterproof backing, this will protect the original fabric. (after 4 kids I know the meaning of OOPS!)

Mate I love reading this thread, your GT-P is exactly what I want in a FPV, Lightning Strike, black stripe's, manual, all you need in tinted glass and that's exactly how I would have one, good taste mate.

You know, I think Silver is a very bland colour and I'd never consider it as a colour for my car, but damn.. your car looks amazing in it. If I was to go a GT, silver would be a serious consideration.

G'day ShockWaveXR6na,
They are the standard park light globes, it's just that the camera was on a slow exposure.
Thanks for all your comments fellas oops and gals, I really appreciate them. I will try to get a few more pics next weekend. If I get time the windows should be tinted by then.

Cheers, Danny
