    with a decent tidy up of the paintwork (good buff perhaps) and around the engine bay it would look extremely neat.

    two-tone with the Calais silver on the bottom would look awesome imo.

    I've never been a big fan of those wheels but they do suit the colour :drool:

    This

    Wheels cannot come off fast enough !Thou personally I don't think that the VT SS rims will suit the VK shape :drool:

    Possibly the HSV wheels from the VY might suit the lines better



    Interesting colour and tough engine combo thou

    Still think they are a bit round for the boxy VK shape, but see how it goes.

    Given the dark colour of your VK this would look quiet sinister :drool:
